Case Study

Lakeland

KSF has consistently won tenders for supplying all wall bay and mid-floor unitary to Lakeland, the high-end kitchenware retailer, across the UK.

Due to relatively short lead times, we used UK-based metalwork and joinery suppliers to provide the majority of fixtures with competitive prices to beat fierce competition.

During the course of the project we began to employ our China resources for some items in an effort to provide improved value to Lakeland.

In addition, we worked with the customer’s site contractor closely to arrange the deliveries on time, but in line with the planned schedule.

KSF have won 14 tenders with a 5 to 10% saving over our competitors.

What we were asked to do

  • Work with customers’ own contractor
  • Make significant savings
  • Deliver all units in a short lead time

What we achieved

  • Good collaboration with fit-out contractors
  • Cost savings from a mixture of China and UK manufacturing sources

“I would wholeheartedly endorse them as a supplier .”

“I have been working with KSF for around four years now and in that time, we have developed a solid relationship. I particularly like working with Benjamin Wang, who brings a different perspective to most issues that other companies do not. In our time working together, KSF have completed several large projects for some major high street names to a high standard, in a timely manner. Their pricing has always been competitive, regardless of the type of product. The team as KSF have excellent communication and I would wholeheartedly endorse them as a supplier."
