The Kitchen Bathroom Buying Group (KBBG), part of DER KREIS, has reported a strong start to Q2, bringing 6 new suppliers on board, significantly increasing the portfolio of products available to members, ahead of its Annual Members’ Meeting in June.
The buying group is welcoming 2 new kitchen furniture suppliers, brands that specialise in flooring, partitions and outdoor furniture, as well as a leading distributor of worktops and decorative surfaces.
Schüller, who is among the top 3 German kitchen furniture manufacturers, is joining the group with its versatile and co-ordinated solutions including worktops, fronts, shelves and storage solutions. Beyond this, Schüller also provides living room, utility room and pantry solutions, as well as wardrobes and optimally integrated furniture for home working spaces.
KBBG members will also have access to Stosa Cucine, who has been producing quality Italian kitchens for over 60 years and is internationally recognised for its innovation and style. Offering both modern and classic kitchen designs in a variety of finishes, Stosa Cucine’s unique style also extends to the living area to create modern and functional living spaces. Stosa Cucine is highly competitive on price and is constantly evolving its products and support for retail partners.
KlickFloor is bringing its luxury engineered vinyl flooring solutions to the group and is the first flooring specialist in KBBG’s portfolio. KBBG has also added Patishon – a UK-based company specialising in the design and manufacture of elegant glazed partitions, doors, and room dividers with the industrial character of steel-frame glazing. In addition 4 Seasons Outdoor (4SO), has come on board as a supplier to support KBBG's members with the growing trend for outdoor living spaces. Finally, Blackheath Products, a leading distributor of worktops and decorative surfaces, has joined the buying group.
Owain Harrison, MD of KBBG, said: “These new partnerships reflect our ongoing commitment to expanding the breadth and quality of our offering for independent KBB retailers. Each of these suppliers brings something new to the table, whether that’s innovative design, exceptional craftsmanship, or new product categories for our members to explore. As consumer expectations continue to evolve, it’s vital that our members have access to fresh ideas and opportunities that help them stay ahead of the curve.”
