ER2 Holdings Ltd. operates as an investment holding Chinese company. The private company is based in Hong Kong, Hong Kong.

The company was founded by Frances Lincoln in 1977. They published their first books two years later, and they have been creating illustrated books of the highest quality ever since, with special emphasis on gardening, walking and the outdoors, art, architecture, design and landscape. In 1983 they started to publish illustrated books for children. Since then they have won many awards and prizes with both fiction and non-fiction children's books including the Independent Publishers' Guild Cultural Diversity Award in 2007. In 2008 they established the Frances Lincoln Diverse Voices Children's Book Award to further their mission for publishing children's titles that celebrate cultural diversity in the widest possible sense. Both lists have a strong multicultural element and a high reputation internationally. Their many publishing partners include The Royal Horticultural Society and they want all their books to reflect the richness and diversity of the world they live in today. An illustrated stationery list appeared for the first time in 1992. Today they publish address books, desk diaries and journals in association with several major museums and institutions. Frances Lincoln also represents a diverse group of adult and children’s book publishers in addition to its own lists. They are proud to offer sales support to Allen & Unwin Children’s Books, Barn Owl Books, Boxer Books, Campfire, Little Bookroom, Mogzilla, the Natural History Museum, NYRB Classics, The New York Review Children's Collection, NYRB Collections, Tara Books, Timber Press and White's Books in the UK. Each company they work with displays the finest quality in publishing across a wide range of interests. Frances Lincoln died, aged 55, in February 2001. Her husband, John Nicoll, now runs the company. They publish well over 100 new books a year, and have nearly 1000 in print. Their turnover is around £6 million per annum and they employ about 40 people. Their offices are in Kentish Town, London. They celebrated their 30th anniversary on 21 November 2007.
