Nolte has welcomed Kam Bharadwa as its new national franchise manager, bringing more than 20 years of kitchen retail experience to the role. Bharadwa spent the last 5 years working in the kitchen franchise sector at Kutchenhaus, where he helped open more than 40 showrooms across the UK and Europe, supporting retailers as they worked to establish, grow and develop successful businesses.

"I enjoy getting to know people, understanding what drives them and helping them achieve their ambitions," Bharadwa said. "I believe in being approachable, honest and supportive, and my aim is to use my experience to help our franchise partners build successful businesses and feel part of the Nolte family."

Chris Rushby, MD of Nolte Kitchens UK, said: "Kam's track record speaks for itself. Having helped open more than 40 showrooms during his time in the franchise sector, he brings a rare depth of experience in what it actually takes to build a successful kitchen business from the ground up. That, combined with his genuine, people-first approach, makes him a fantastic addition to the team, and I know our franchise partners, both existing and future, will benefit enormously from having him on their side."
