KBBG Adds TruBlue as a New Service Provider

The Kitchen Bathroom Buying Group (KBBG), part of DER KREIS, Europe’s leading kitchen and bathroom buying group, has enhanced its offering of support services with the addition of TruBlue.

Designed to help KBB businesses manage day-to-day tasks, TruBlue is a cloud-based software that enables retailers to optimise quoting using the latest, precise pricing details, and manage customer projects through to completion with ease. Accurate, enriched, and up-to-date product data is a critical component of TruBlue’s offering, with catalogues from the breadth of the KBB industry instantly available to users.

All tools and data can be accessed via a single log-in from any compatible web browser or device, with all pricing, customer and project data stored securely in the cloud. TruBlue’s instant access model eliminates KBB businesses from experiencing inconvenient downtime for software installations or lengthy catalogue downloads.

Bill Miller, Managing Director, KBBG, says: “At KBBG, we are continually expanding our portfolio of suppliers to ensure that our members have access to the best products and services in the KBB industry. TruBlue is a new and exciting business management system, and we are sure that our members will benefit hugely from this cloud-based software solution.”

Leigh Martin, Managing Director, TruBlue, adds: “We believe the software that KBB specialists depend on to manage their day-to-day business operations should be flexible, intuitive and be in continuous development. Our platform is an ideal haven for companies using restrictive, desktop-based, legacy platforms, that no-longer wish to be held back by their software, and want to free up their time to concentrate on growth. TruBlue is new software from an established team within the industry. It holds decades of experience in the KBB and software industry and we believe we have created a product that the entire KBB industry will adopt.

“We are delighted to collaborate with the KBBG. Not only will members of the buying group benefit from our expert, cloud-based system, they will also be supported by our UK-based development teams, who are completely focused on making sure retailers can realise the full potential of their business.”
