We all need a good neighbour so tell us your story of how you’ve been helping that someone next door.

The Wokingham Community Awards couldn’t exist without support from some brilliant companies. Kutchenhaus is behind Neighbour of the Year

England footballer and former Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek who currently plays for AC Milan, is one of the partners of a new kitchen retailer who is now open in Wokingham town centre.

Kutchenhaus has opened at Elms Walk, offering some of the latest designs from the German kitchen manufacturer Nobilia, as well as products from brands such as AEG, NEFF, Caple, and Bora.

The showroom is co-owned by father and son Marc and Tony Maritz alongside their business partners, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, and his brother Isaac.

It is their second showroom, joining a branch in West Byfleet.

Father and son Marc and Tony oversees both showrooms, building on their experience, with Barry Beech as a Design Consultant in Wokingham and Katie Wicks in West Byfleet. Both individuals having many years’ experience in the industry and focus on customer service.

Marc has extensive experience, opening his first showroom in South Africa in 1992, going on to own four showrooms since then.

Tony has experience in the kitchen industry from both design, installation, and supplier side, drawing on skills he has been taught from Marc over the years.

And as part of Nobilia, Europe’s leading kitchen manufacturer, Kutchenhaus is a franchise business that says it creates affordable kitchens that are skilfully engineered and beautifully designed.

The franchise is currently the fastest growing kitchen showroom franchise in the UK with around 68 showrooms located throughout the UK.

“We’re tremendously proud of our new showroom and are looking forward to welcoming customers in for initial conversations,” said Marc.

“Our location at Unit 7B, Elms Walk which means we’re opposite Aldi, next door to the well-known Fiona Parry Boutique, Peacock House Interiors, Starbucks and Everyman Cinema, and plenty of other shops, as well as the park.

Those interested can come in and take their first steps to a beautiful new kitchen with us.

“Having the support of Kutchenhaus means we can offer customers the very best in German-quality kitchens, plus a hands-on service where we work collaboratively with them to deliver a space they’re delighted with.”

Ruben is very pleased that we have expanded into Wokingham. “We saw this opportunity as a perfect one for us to open a second showroom,” he said.

“With Marc and Tony’s extensive experience, the team can offer guidance and a first-class service to new customers.

“Our first showroom together in West Byfleet has been a great success, so we look forward to welcoming the people of Wokingham through our doors here.”

There are more than 60 Kutchenhaus showrooms across the country, with the company using modern technology to help create kitchens designed for daily living.

“By opening Kutchenhaus Wokingham we achieve our latest goal and grow our portfolio to two locations.

We’re excited for the future and keen to open a third showroom once we’re established here,” he said.
