Kutchenhaus Cambridge opens with mission of changing the world ‘one kitchen at a time’
Kutchenhaus Cambridge, a new 2,000 sq ft German kitchen showroom, opened its doors in the heart of the city this month.
Founded by two kitchen industry experts, Catherine Salmon and Rodger Lloyd, the new venture is located at 81 Regent Street.
Catherine, who has been in the kitchen sales and design sector for 20 years, met Rodger - who joined the industry eight years ago after a career in performing arts - six years ago when they shared an employer. They stayed in contact after leaving - both share a passion for kitchen design - and have now joined forces to launch the Kutchenhaus Cambridge showroom.
The three-storey showcase consists of “three floors of kitchen inspiration, design and displays, alongside the latest appliances”.
Catherine said: “Having explored the Kutchenhaus franchise route, and after discussions with Rodger, we decided it would be a great fit for us to venture into owning our own showroom.
“It has always been a main ambition of mine to own a showroom and, using 20 years of experience to realise my own businesses, this was the natural next step. It is my purpose, passion and drive to bring more sustainability and wellbeing to people’s homes, and also to the industry we work in. We will be focused on producing the very best for the Cambridge area.”
Rodger said: “Designing kitchens allows me to combine my love for creativity and problem-solving, helping people to bring their dream to life. I take great pride in looking at a space, understanding the client’s needs and budget, and delivering a stunning design that enhances their home and lifestyle.
“Now, I feel it’s the perfect time to embark on my own journey — to build something that’s unique and continue doing what I love most: creating joy through beautiful kitchen designs. I am excited about the future and passionate about making a difference, one kitchen at a time alongside a fantastic business partner. We have worked together for six years, so know how each other operates and we seem to complement and support one another very well.”
