  • Our Story

    Kemps General Store was founded in 2017 by Liz Kemp, a shopkeeper's daughter and passionate advocate of independent retail. Kemps Books was added in 2020, following expansion to bigger premises and sister shop Kemps On The Corner opened in Wetherby in 2024.

    "At Kemps I want to delight and inspire customers with a wonderful collection of lovely things and a great customer experience"

    Our store is at the heart of its local community, offering a relaxing and friendly environment to find gifts or books, to be inspired or just to exchange smiles and browse.

    You'll find a range of beautiful and unusual products here, made by independent artisans and producers across the UK, alongside a wonderfully curated collection of books for everyone.

    If you are looking for something specific or need any assistance, please do get in touch.
