Schmidt UK showrooms enjoyed +35% sales growth in 2022
As a home interiors business with an outstanding reputation for quality and service, Schmidt Maidstone provides exceptional foundations on which an ambitious new owner can lead from the front and build a significant asset for themselves.
The business provides high-quality, made-to-measure home interiors, from kitchen to living room, bedroom, home offices and more. It has minimal overheads and strong profit margins on sales. All products come with a long warranty.
Visibility for the showroom is excellent: situated on London Road, it enjoys a prominent location close to Morrisons and B&Q. There are 5 kitchens on display.
The growth potential for the business is similarly strong: around 70% of the local population are homeowners, and other showrooms in the network are delivering £1m+ in annual sales and £100,000+ in owners’ profits.
Every solution your design team create will be of the highest quality and comes with Schmidt’s reputation for product excellence and satisfaction. Customer orders are all bespoke designs, with interiors manufactured at Schmidt’s factories in Europe and delivered direct to the consumer – so there’s no need for expensive stockholding.
With comprehensive training and ongoing business support from our dedicated UK teams, you don’t need previous experience in home improvements: your role would be to lead the business, manage your team and liaise with potential customers on achieving their dream project, designed by your professional staff.
Our support extends to marketing, logistics, growth and much more, giving you peace of mind that you will not be on your own when you take over the showroom.
ABOUT SCHMIDT
Schmidt has been in the business of making homes look beautiful for almost 90 years, and is the fifth-largest interiors manufacturer in Europe.
Schmidt’s history began in 1934 when Hubert Schmidt began operating a family business specialising in the manufacturing of kitchen dressers. This endeavour became official when the company we know today was founded in 1959 in the Alsace region of France.
In those intervening years, Schmidt has grown to become one of Europe’s leading and most revered names in stunning, made-to-measure home interior manufacturers.
We are proud to still be a family-owned and run business to this day, with Hubert’s grandchildren now heading up the company, led by CEO Anne Leitzgen. Our nimble, customer-focused approach has enabled us to deliver success for decades, and continues to change lives – for both our franchisees and our customers.
Our ambitions are:
- To remain the No.1 European network of kitchen distributors
- To be in the top 4 kitchen manufacturers in Europe, and top 10 in the world
- Continue to lead the market on sustainable manufacturing
- Double the size of our UK showroom network by 2028
