25 years of offering
our listeners audio pleasure
The Listeners’ Library opened its doors to
business on 1 May, 1985. It boasted 27 titles and
two copies of each on its shelves!
“I always knew it was a volume business but that
we had to start somewhere, so what better place than
at home with no overheads?” says Kirston Hoets, founder
of The Listeners’ Library.
The Listeners’ Library has its flag-ship store in
Hyde Square, Sandton, and 3outlets: Pretoria, Cape
Town, Johannesburg.
Rental Library
It has over 1 000 titles on its CD and Playaway catalogue,
with multiple copies of each, and a membership list
of over 15 000. New titles are added on a regular
basis.
Besides call-in customers, we have
mail-order customers in far-flung corners of the country.
