We are a leading domestic designer, marketer and distributor of
a broad range of branded, high quality small appliances under such
well recognised brand names as Russell Hobbs®, Haden®, Salton®,
Tower®, George Foreman Grills®, Breadman®, and Juicelady®.
We believe that we have the leading domestic market share in indoor
grills, kettles, toasters, and a significant market share in other
product categories.
We also design and market tabletop products, clocks, lighting products,
personal care, haircare and wellness products under such brand names
as Carmen®, Mountain Breeze®, Pifco®, Westclox®,
Ultrasonex® and Rejuvenique®. We believe that our strong
market position results from our well known brand names, the breadth,
quality and innovation of our product offerings, our strong relationships
with retailers and our outsourcing strategy.
We currently market and sell our products primarily in the UK through
an internal sales force. We predominantly sell our products to specialist
retailers, department stores, grocery retailers, electrical retailers,
catalogue shops and mail order companies. Some of our customers
include Argos, Boots, Comet, Currys, Index, Littlewoods, GUS, Marks
& Spencers, John Lewis Partnership, Wilkinsons, B&Q, Tesco, Debenhams,
Sainsburys, Allders, Makro, Costco and Aldi.
In France we have recently purchased a company called Look For
which sells products under our group brand names as well
as local French brands Orva and Orgalys.
