The new showroom stands as testament to innovation, luxury and culinary excellence, providing an extraordinary space for consumers and retailers alike to discover the very best in kitchen appliances.
Middleby Residential is pleased to announce the launch of its flagship store in Oundle, Northamptonshire.
The 3,000 sq. ft. showroom serves as the destination store for Middleby Residential’s premium brands – AGA, La Cornue and Novy, along with products from AGA Cookshop and the AGA Outdoors collection.
Middleby Residential is renowned for offering a curated collection of luxury consumer brands, manufacturing and distributing some of the world’s most iconic kitchen appliances.
The flagship showroom has a display of the latest AGA cookers, including the groundbreaking ERA – the first-ever glass AGA – and the newly launched eR7i, a 100cm cast-iron model that uniquely combines a fan oven and induction hob with the traditional AGA hotplate and cast-iron heat-storage ovens.
Visitors can also explore innovative outdoor cooking products from the AGA Outdoors collection, as well as from Kamado Joe and Josper.
Luxury French brand La Cornue is well represented in the new showroom, which features its exquisitely crafted Château cookers alongside the entry-level CornuFé models.
Additionally, the showroom functions as a Novy Experience Centre, offering both retailers and consumers the chance to explore a wide range of fully operational Novy appliances and gesture-controlled lighting models. These include the recently launched Easy 90 Prestige vented induction hob with rotary dial controls.
Global president of Middleby Residential Group Najib Malouf said: “Oundle sets the record for the number of Middleby brands in a UK store. It began as just an AGA shop and it now has six brands and 51 products. It’s more than just a store for the local catchment area. It serves as support for the sales for other marketing channels and a place for luxury brands such as La Cornue to bring clients, architects, and designers.”
He went on to say that “this is only the beginning” and that the “next stop should be an experience-laden store in the London area that truly represents who we are. We have a unique collection of luxury brands with nothing comparable in high-end residential cooking. We want to properly tell our story and do this great portfolio justice”.
