Exhibitor Testimonials
Terry Ball - MD, William Ball
"Taking part in kbb Birmingham is, to us, a vital part of being judicious with our marketing budget. It's the place where everyone in the industry convenes and is a one-stop-shop for meeting colleagues and potential customers and, ultimately, for doing business. We'd be mad to miss it!"
Richard Walker - Sales and Marketing Director, De Dietrich
'We believe it is important to exhibit at the KBB Show as it provides an excellent platform for us to both display and demonstrate our collections to key buyers in one location. There is no other show like it, and the two-year gap between shows works in terms of the time taken to build on the previous event and plan for the next. As an industry event, it is a must.'
Holly Sleight - Marketing Manager, Rangemaster
"(kbb Birmingham) is so key to the industry because it is such a well-respected event. Any exhibitor can be reassured that attending will benefit their business."
Robert Laurie - Design Director, Poggenpohl
"KBB Birmingham is one of the major kitchen industry events in the UK and is one of the only shows that takes place outside of London - Birmingham is a very central venue and therefore you tend get a wider range of people there. It is good to have an opportunity to reaffirm our status and underline some of our brand polices among a trade audience."
Craig Rothwell - MD, Planit Fusion
"We are certain that the industry will recover from the current slump and we feel that it is important to keep ourselves in front of our customers and at the forefront of their minds so that we are in good shape to move forward and grow when the economy bounces back. It really is THE industry event and the main platform to launch products to customers."
Darren Holliday - MD, Abode
"At Abode we have actually increased our marketing budgets because we believe that we have to support our customers' businesses. KBB is an important element in this support. It is the shop front for retailers, buyers and manufacturers to see for themselves who is delivering fresh ideas and great new products, point of sale and brochures to the market. We are, after all, working in a fashion industry and as such things can never remain still."
Nick McGrellis - MD, Croydex
"The recession won't last forever and it's important to keep investing through the tough times. I'm a firm believer that nobody ever shrunk themselves to greatness. (kbb) is an important place to network as well as meet and talk to existing and potential customers. It's important for the industry to have a platform like this."
Jim Gettings - MD, Warendorf
"kbb Birmingham provides companies with a great platform from which to launch new products. With this in mind, we have chosen the event as the first exhibition showing of our new Starck by Warendorf kitchen range. kbb Birmingham is an important part of the industry and we are very much looking forward to the event".
