Notes to Editors

 

Ultimate Products is the owner of a number of leading homeware brands
including Salter (the UK's oldest houseware brand, established in 1760) and
Beldray (a laundry, floor care, heating and cooling brand that was established
in 1872). According to its market research, nearly 80% of UK households own at
least one of the Group's products.

 

Ultimate Products sells to over 300 retailers across 38 countries, and
specialises in five product categories: Small Domestic Appliances; Housewares;
Laundry; Audio; and Heating and Cooling. Other brands include Progress
(cookware and bakeware), Kleeneze (laundry and floorcare), Petra (small
domestic appliances) and Intempo (audio).

 

The Group's products are sold to a broad cross-section of both large national
and international multi-channel retailers as well as smaller national retail
chains, incorporating discount retailers, supermarkets, general retailers and
online retailers.

 

Founded in 1997, Ultimate Products employs over 370 staff, a significant
number of whom have joined via the Group's graduate development scheme, and is
headquartered in Oldham, Greater Manchester, where it has design, sales,
marketing, buying, quality assurance, support functions and warehouse
facilities across two sites. Manor Mill, the Group's head office, includes a
spectacular 20,000 sq ft showroom that showcases each of its brands. In
addition, the Group has an office and showroom in Guangzhou, China and in
Paris, France.

 

Please note that Ultimate Products is not the owner of Russell Hobbs. The
company currently has licence agreements in place granting it an exclusive
licence to use the "Russell Hobbs" trademark for cookware and laundry (NB this
does not include Russell Hobbs electrical appliances).
