Start your own kitchen planning and fitting business

We are a family-run firm with strong values of honesty, integrity and sheer professionalism in all that we do. The Kitchen Depot has stores in Telford and Glasgow and we also have various franchisees nationwide (East Kilbride, Dumbarton, Shrewsbury, Hemel Hempstead and Wolverhampton). With two more franchises opening in the next couple of months, there has never been a more exciting time to join our business!

When we start the process of getting to know each other we will be looking for an outline business proposal. You should assume an average sale value of £6,000 and an opening capital access of a minimum of £80k.

Who are we looking for?

We need people who match our DNA; people who want to be paid well for delivering an excellent service and for doing a brilliant job. We want people who are driven by success and who realise that keeping customers happy will help build and develop a successful sustainable business. You must be honest, reliable and unafraid of hard work.

We wish to recruit franchisees who share in our objective of developing a national brand with a local identity, based on good family values of trust, honesty and integrity.

Training

You will be inducted into The Kitchen Depot Family once you have completed an intensive training schedule with our specially trained Franchise Manager. When you have completed your training programme you will understand how to supply a kitchen right through from first pitch to completion of fit confirmation.

Our training schedule falls into a number of key areas:

• Product knowledge, CAD design & kitchen planning
• Business systems, order processing, accounts and finance
• Marketing and PR, presentation skills, sales and negotiating, customer services and after-sales procedures

We make our training relaxed, informative and always one-to-one. Our key suppliers will also carry out targeted training. Everything you learn will be permanently at your side within our extensive training manual.

At The Kitchen Depot you never stop learning. For the first 6 months you will receive weekly visits from our dedicated Business Support Manager who will understand every element of your business.

We have a well-executed and time-proven brand strategy that has been developed over many years and yet has never stood still. Whilst you are training we will be
targeting your core market to ensure we are up and running come your launch.
