Kaemingk to open UK showroom

Great news for UK Christmas buyers, Kaemingk are opening a showroom in Solihull from 9th of January 2021.

 

While restrictions on travel are in place and trade shows on hold, Kaemingk have made the decision to invest in Christmas showrooms in the UK and Germany to facilitate the best buying experience possible for Christmas 2021 from Kaemingk.

 

The UK showroom will be in the Platinum suite of the AIS Building in Solihull, taking up 2,000 square metres, which is three times the size of Kaemingk’s usual stand space at Spring Fair.

 

Kaemingk told GTN Xtra: “We want to go the extra mile to meet buyers needs when it comes to buying Christmas 2021.  With Christmas being so important to our customers we feel we need to offer them the best environment to plan their displays and ranges by bringing the Kaemingk experience to the UK.

 

“At Solihull we will use a similar set up to our showroom in Aalten. You will find a large offering in Lumineo lighting, Everlands trees wreaths & garlands, silk floristry, shatterproof & glass baubles and   figurines along with all our theme settings for 2021.

 

“Our project team is planning the build right now ensuring we can open on the 9th of January. They will also be making sure we create a safe working environment for our customers by implementing the Covid regulations.

 

“At Kaemingk we will launch our Christmas 2021 range on the 2nd of December. So, for those who can’t wait we are happy to take you around via a virtual showroom tour.”

 

With numbers having to be manged very carefully due to Covid guidelines, Kaemingk advises buyers to book their visit to the Solihull showroom as soon as possible. Their sales representatives will be in touch with their customers shortly.

 

 

Kaemingk is also very thankful for the support and professionalism of the AIS team! They have been a big help and they continue to assist where they can whilst set-up is about to start.

 

Covid-19 may have brought many challenges for all of us. What Kaemingk has learned throughout this process is that: “When it’s going to get tough, the Dutch get going”. They can’t wait to start working with their customers on an amazing Christmas 2021.

 

For now, Kaemingk hopes that Christmas remains in full swing for UK retailers.
