Resounding Success For KBBG at kbb Birmingham 2022

The Kitchen Bathroom Buying Group (KBBG), part of DER KREIS, Europe’s leading kitchen and bathroom buying group, achieved the highest number of leads at a kbb show to date.

This is the fifth kbb show that the KBBG has been involved with and the largest stand in the company’s history. The stand was in partnership with Getley, who displayed its Alku kitchen, bedroom and living room furniture ranges, all of which are manufactured in the UK.

Bill Miller, Managing Director, KBBG, says: “kbb Birmingham is a wonderful opportunity for us to engage with our members and independent retailers. The KBBG is exclusively for independent kitchen and bathroom specialists. Members of the group beneft from exclusive buying conditions and can access a broad range of leading kitchen and bathroom suppliers. There is also the opportunity to gain access to unique private label kitchen furniture ranges, only available to KBBG members, as well as exclusive member-only promotions and offers.”

Members of the buying group also receive preferential rates from service providers such as Simon Acres Group, Compusoft, Lead Wolf, Novuna consumer finance and the Used Kitchen Exchange, to help enhance their business.

Exhibiting at kbb Birmingham allows those interested in joining the KBBG to explore the array of products and services, benefits and rewards that the buying group offers to support independent retailers. Meanwhile, existing members are able to hear of the latest promotions available exclusively at the show and receive an update on the newest suppliers to join the KBBG.

Bill adds: “There was a real buzz and sense of positivity for the KBB industry at the show this year. We entered the show with some apprehension, not knowing if the exhibition would have the same impact as it did before Covid-19, but the opening day exceeded all our expectations and it was great to see such enthusiasm among the many visitors at the show.

“We have enjoyed the chance to network face-to-face once again, catching up with familiar faces, as well as connecting with new people and showing them what the KBBG can offer their business.”
