Retailer Home plus on Monday said it has published a volume on the company’s 12-year history.

Entitled, “12 Years of Home plus, the Dreams and Passion of the Great Stone Face,” the book deals mostly with the history of the company and also the management initiatives of CEO Lee Seung-han.

There are also a series of illustrations to go along with the narrative, the company said via its website.

Home plus was established in 1999, first as a joint venture between Samsung Group and U.K.-based Tesco, and accordingly named Samsung Tesco.

In 2011, it switched to its current name, Home plus.

Home plus operates 127 major retailers in the country, the company said.
