Description

Welcome to the kbbreview Podcast, this is episode two of Season Four.

Today we’re going to look at a couple of opportunities for retailers, or at least things that should be if the way to crack them can only be found.

First up we’re talking about the small builder market, and that’s not big contracts or developers, we mean the builders that will do the extensions and the relatively small refurbishments that will almost certainly involve a trip to the single biggest kitchen retailer in the country – Howdens. Can independent retailers get in on some that action rather than just leaving them to it?

We're talking to Elizabeth Pantling-Jones from Lima Kitchens in Milton Keynes

And then we’re talking sustainability – it’s the single biggest issue that will dominate all our lives in the next 20 years and there’s no question it’s high on the agenda of manufacturers – but for consumers of kitchens and bathrooms and the retailers that serve them it just doesn’t seem to be registering – and that could be a real problem if the government introduces laws to force them to make it a priority in their projects.

So we’ve got a panel of bathroom retailers - Justine Bullock from The Tap End, Sam Colwill from BathroomsByDesign and Angus Kerr from The Bathroom Company as well as Tom Reynolds from the Bathroom Manufacturers Association to talk through just why that interest isn’t there and what can be done about it.
