Hot on the heels of KitchenCraft’s recent acquisition of the exclusive distribution rights for Maxwell & Williams and Casa Domani (owned by HAG Corp Australia), the company is continuing to build its distribution portfolio.
Following the merger of parent company Lifetime Brands Inc. with the Filament Group, KitchenCraft will distribute the Chef’n brand from January 1, 2019, along with Rabbit and D.Stil. In addition, also on January 1, 2019, The London Pottery Company will be transferring the distribution of their teapots to KitchenCraft.
“It makes strategic and operational sense for all Lifetime Brands to be consolidated under one roof,” explains KitchenCraft managing director. Matthew Canwell. “And given KitchenCraft’s experience in the tool, gadget and barware areas, it will be an excellent addition to our whole range.”
Continues Matthew: “Equally, we are delighted to work with The London Pottery Company which fits in perfectly within our Dine category alongside La Cafetiere and licences such as the V&A.”
Both brands are currently distributed in the UK by Dexam. Comments Matthew: “We will ensure the brands are developed, with each having its own focus.”
