A Trusted European Brand Behind You

Your showroom will offer a full range of custom-built kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, and storage solutions, all manufactured to order in our European factories. Every order comes with a 10-year furniture warranty, giving your customers complete confidence in their purchase. You’ll also have access to premium appliance brands like Bosch, Siemens, Miele, and NEFF, helping you position your showroom at the higher end of the market.
Unlike traditional kitchen franchises, Schmidt operates on a dealership model. There are no franchise fees and no ongoing royalties. You keep more of your profits while benefiting from Schmidt’s global brand reputation and extensive support network.
How the Schmidt Business Model Works

Investment and Funding
Launching a Schmidt showroom in Chester requires a total investment of around £350,000, with liquid capital starting from £70,000. To help you get started, Schmidt provides an interest-free showroom loan to cover the entire cost of your fit-out. We also facilitate bank financing up to £170,000 where needed.
Because Schmidt operates on a dealership model, there are no franchise fees and no ongoing royalties, meaning more profit stays in your business.
During your discovery call, we’ll share detailed, specific projections, including cash flow forecasts and break-even timelines based on the performance of successful Schmidt showrooms across the UK.
Schmidt’s model is designed to help you build a profitable business from day one. Customers pay deposits upfront, so you start with positive cash flow. There’s no need to hold stock because every kitchen and interior is made to order and delivered directly to your customer.
You’ll benefit from an exclusive Chester territory, giving you full control of your local market. Schmidt also invests heavily in national marketing campaigns, sending leads directly to your showroom. While we handle manufacturing and brand awareness, you can focus on design, sales, and building customer relationships.

Training, Support, and Technology

Clear Milestones, Real Results
Schmidt’s model gives you a defined growth path based on real data from UK showrooms:
In the first six months, you’ll complete your training, open your showroom, and start receiving your first leads through Schmidt’s national marketing campaigns.
By months seven to eighteen, most showrooms see growth accelerate, with average kitchen orders around £14,000 and projects ranging from £6,000 to over £50,000.
From the second year onwards, many established showrooms achieve annual revenues of around £1.5 million, and some owners choose to expand into additional territories as their business grows.
You don’t need prior experience in kitchen design or interiors to run a successful Schmidt showroom. We provide comprehensive training and ongoing support to give you everything you need.
Before your showroom launches, we’ll help you find and secure the best Chester location, design and fit out your showroom, and build a business plan based on real UK showroom data. We’ll also support you with recruitment and training for your local team and create a tailored local marketing strategy to help you launch with impact.
Once your showroom is open, you’ll take part in our onboarding programme at the Schmidt Groupe Academy, where you’ll learn product knowledge, design tools, and sales techniques. You’ll also work closely with a dedicated UK area manager and a team of specialists to guide you through your first months and beyond.
