Andy Barwell commented: “The Whiteley showroom takes us to that next level and completes our portfolio.

“We’re excited to be opening this space, which will be our flagship showroom out of the four, and we’ve cherry picked the very best people to work with us to deliver an exceptional service.”

Measuring 1,500sqft and with 12 kitchen displays, with appliances form the likes of Bosch, NEFF and Siemens.  

Kutchenhaus Whiteley employs five team members, which includes existing Romsey showroom manager Simon Passaway, designer Iain Wraxall, and admin/lead taker Susan Dalgarno. 

Co-owner Paul Turner commented: “The potential is massive and it’s an exciting time for us to be opening this space.

“This showroom has a premium feel, with displays showcasing the very latest in kitchen technology, and some niche products which are difficult to find elsewhere.  

“In terms of location, we’re situated close to places like Wagamama, M&S Food and Cineworld, so we can welcome passers-by, as well as those who are already on their journey to finding a new kitchen.” 

Andy Barwell added: “Thanks to our collective knowledge and experience, we’re able to offer a first-class service from start to finish, and we’ve assembled a fantastic team of professionals who treat it like it’s their own business and will work across our four locations.

“We’re enjoying having initial conversations with customers.”
