The Noltë kitchens comprise of a selection of furniture colours and finishes. The larger of the two displays is finished in Feel White, mixed with Artwood Rustic Wild Oak, and is the focus of the new reception area. The second display is finished in Ocean Blue, for a contemporary and on-trend feel chosen to harmonise with the Euronics branding.

Bill Miller, Managing Director, KBBG explains: “Independent electrical retailers are faced with challenging market conditions. Fitted kitchens provide independent electrical retailers with a tremendous business opportunity, and the unique partnership between CIH and KBBG assists CIH members to successfully enter the market with relative ease.

 

“The majority of kitchen furniture sales are completed in traditional bricks and mortar showrooms, meaning the independent retailer continues to be a great place for consumers to buy a kitchen. Through our partnership with CIH, members are given a tremendous opportunity, with comprehensive support, to grow and progress their business into the retailing of fitted kitchens.”

Stuart Cook, Chief Executive Officer, Combined Independents (Holdings) Ltd says: “The installation of the Noltë kitchens in the CIH reception demonstrates our commitment to the unique partnership with have with KBBG. CIH is dedicated to supporting its members, as the independent electrical retail market can be challenging, and we are delighted to provide our members with the tools and support needed to develop and evolve their businesses.”
