A new Managing Director for German kitchen company ALNO UK has been announced. Adinde Blacquière has taken over the position following her previous roles as Channel Director and Finance Director for the growing company. 

Blacquière’s predecessor Jonathon Wagstaff has taken on other responsibilities for the development of the International business after spending six years steering ALNO UK from strength to greater strength.

“I am very proud of everything we have achieved over the last six years and I believe the right people are in place to continue taking the business forward and supporting our business partners for the years to come”, says Wagstaff.    

The UK company began supplying high-quality kitchens from Germany in 1974 and since then, ALNO has steadily grown and earned a reputation for innovative and functional designs, built to the highest standards with exceptional service.  ALNO delivers inspired kitchen solutions for every price bracket across the brands ALNO, Wellmann, Impuls and Pino, distributed throughout the UK through John Lewis department stores, over 30 independent ALNO retailers, nearly 50 franchised in-toto Design Studios and 3 dedicated Contracts offices.

“This is a very exciting time for ALNO UK and our customers”, says Blacquière.  “We have invested heavily in the development of our business in recent years and will continue to do so.  I am looking forward to continuing to work with our partners and further progressing the business.”
