KAHLA PORCELAIN USA HEADS NORTH TO CANADA
Unique contemporary German porcelain now available to Canadian retailers
Boston, MA - May 11, 2006 - KAHLA
Porcelain USA, the sole U.S. distributor for one of Europe’s
most modern and innovative porcelain producers, has announced its entrance
into the Canadian market. Retailers throughout the country will now
have
the opportunity to purchase some of the most innovative and distinct
household, hotel and restaurant porcelain products in the world.
Since its founding in 1844, KAHLA Porcelain has become one of the most
innovative porcelain producers in Europe, garnering more than 50 International
Design Awards for their products touting individual distinction and modern
designs. After a highly successful expansion into the Asian market, KAHLA
turned its attention to North America, establishing KAHLA Porcelain USA
in January of this year. Headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, this new
distribution base will service all of the US and Canadian retail markets.
“We experienced unprecedented interest in these products when we showcased
them recently at both the New York International Gift Fair and the International
Home and Housewares Show in Chicago. The momentum from those events is what drove
our expansion to Canada,” said Curt Carpenter, Director of Operations,
KAHLA Porcelain USA. “KAHLA is some of the most modern, affordable and
cutting-edge porcelain there is. There’s simply no other products out there
that really compares to it and we’re thrilled to be the first and only
distributor to introduce it to Canadian retailers.”
Details on an agreement with the company’s first major Canadian
retailer are being finalized and an announcement is expected in the coming
weeks.
