DOORS & WINDOWS
PROUD SPONSOR OF DOORS & WINDOWS
Start-up package announced
»»
FROM AS LITTLE AS £ 18,000 , fabricators can now look to offer The Residence Collection as an additional PVCu system , albeit this is an integrated suite of three window and door systems . There are also considerable added benefits of single length ordering and full factory training in The Residence Academy .
With margins getting ever tighter , particularly for small to medium sized fabricators , the low entry cost and introduction of The Residence Collection can bring in far better net margins as many other trade partners have shown . Market research has also shown that it is in the premium and super premium sectors that are showing the greatest growth and return .
With a modest investment and small production space required , The Residence Collection can be adopted by companies , eager to have great product control and benefit from the additional margins . With full training and set up assistance , along with the unrivalled marketing programme , it ’ s a proposition that many existing customers are thriving on .
Sarah Hitchings , sales and marketing director of The Residence Collection
commented : ” Our new start up package shows that entry costs are low into the premium and super premium sectors .”
