The Kitchen Bathroom Buying Group (KBBG), part of Der Kreis, has brought six new suppliers on board, increasing the portfolio of products available to its members.
Ahead of its Annual Members’ Meeting in June, the buying group has welcomed two new kitchen furniture suppliers, alongside brands that specialise in flooring, partitions and outdoor furniture, as well as a distributor of worktops and decorative surfaces.
Schüller has joined the group with its kitchen furniture, as well as living room, utility room and pantry, wardrobes and home working storage.

KBBG members will also have access to Italian kitchen manufacturer Stosa Cucine (pictured), which has been established for over 60 years and also offers storage which extends to the living space.
The first flooring specialist to join the group, KlickFloor will provide engineered vinyl flooring, with three ranges: Herringbone, KlickFloor RedLabel and KlickFloor BlackLabel.
While distributor BlackHeath Products, which has a 90-year history, will supply worktops and decorative surfaces, including solid surfacing.
Helping members extend beyond the traditional kitchen boundaries, KBBG has added Patishon, a UK-based company which manufactures steel framed glazed partitions, doors, and room dividers.
Looking to expand kitchen sales outdoors, KBBG has also partnered with 4 Seasons Outdoor (4SO), which manufactures garden furniture.
Managing director of KBBG Owain Harrison commented: “We are delighted to welcome so many fantastic new suppliers to our portfolio and it’s great to have them on board ahead of our Annual Members’ Meeting at Center Parcs, Sherwood Forest, on Monday, June 30.
“These new partnerships reflect our ongoing commitment to expanding the breadth and quality of our offering for independent KBB retailers.
“Each of these suppliers brings something new to the table, whether that’s innovative design, exceptional craftsmanship, or new product categories for our members to explore.
“As consumer expectations continue to evolve, it’s vital that our members have access to fresh ideas and opportunities that help them stay ahead of the curve.”
These suppliers follow on from the recent additions of brassware brand St James England and banquette seating manufacturer Nook.
