Best Year Ever for KBBG at kbb Birmingham 2020

The Kitchen Bathroom Buying Group (KBBG) enjoyed great success at the recent kbb Birmingham exhibition, achieving the highest number of sales leads at a kbb show to date.

The KBBG is part of DER KREIS, Europe’s foremost kitchen and bathroom buying group. This year, the group partnered with Beckermann, who exhibited their premium range of kitchen furniture, creating the KBBG’s largest exhibition stand in the UK.

Visitors to the stand at kbb Birmingham were able to meet the entire KBBG team who were on-hand to explain the benefits of the organisation, including the new and exclusive consumer finance package. KBBG members can now offer their customers a variety of finance options to support their sales. The new scheme is offered in association with retracare and backed by Hitachi Capitol Plc., the UKs largest consumer finance provider.

Bill Miller, Managing Director, KBBG, says: “2020 has been the best year ever for KBBG at kbb Birmingham. We are delighted to have achieved our best ever number of sales leads at a kbb show. My colleagues Russell, Neil, Louisa and I would like to thank all of our wonderful members and suppliers that made this year’s event so successful and memorable. Our stand had a steady flow of visitors throughout the exhibition and we are looking forward to working with new and current members following our success at kbb.

“Our new consumer finance package piqued the interest of many of our current and prospective members. The finance package is a superb asset for our members to help them generate more sales and better compete with the national retail chains who offer consumer finance.”

Details and a ‘Save the Date’ card for KBBG’s next Annual Members’ Meeting were given out to members on the stand. Bill comments: “Our Annual Members’ Meeting, which is being held on Monday 15th June 2020, is the next opportunity to see lots of our members in one place. The event is heralded as invaluable for members to meet and network with like-minded colleagues, as well as find out what is new from the KBBG and the kitchen and bathroom industry on a whole.”
