Why Schmidt Groupe Stands Out

When you choose Schmidt Groupe, you’re joining a brand known for its quality and innovation. The franchise is designed to help you succeed with:

  • A respected global name with over 800 showrooms
  • Access to exclusive, premium products
  • Step-by-step guidance to run your business smoothly

Schmidt Groupe gives you everything you need to start and grow a competitive, successful business in the luxury interiors market.

The Franchise Financials

The UK kitchen and interiors market is worth over £5 billion, and Essex is one of the key areas for growth. More homeowners are looking for luxury, custom interiors, which means more opportunities for you. Schmidt franchise owners make money through:

  • Custom kitchen designs made for each client
  • High-end storage solutions and expert installation
  • Interior design services that bring spaces to life

With the demand for these services increasing, your business could quickly become a leader in the Essex market.
