History
Butterworth and Company (Africa) was formed in 1934 as a limited liability company to trade in Africa. The company published many books, both in English and Afrikaans which covered not only South African law but also subjects as diverse as biology and religion. In 1963 the company's East African business was transferred to London and the name changed to Butterworth and Company (South Africa). In 1970 the South African business was transferred to a company registered in South Africa, Butterworth and Company (South Africa) (Pty).
