Kärcher opens purpose-built UK HQ
At almost 7,500 sq m the Banbury facility has office, warehouse and conference facilities, training academy and retail space.
The facilities, conveniently located off the M40 between London and Birmingham, are already proving a hit with customers who are invited to make use of the training academy and conference spaces.
Hartmut Jenner, Kärcher's Global Chief Executive & Chairman said: “Kärcher has an ever-evolving portfolio so it’s important to provide a place to allow people to use the latest machines and learn how to master difficult cleaning tasks; the Academy here has 27 different floor types to help replicate many different cleaning situations.”
Commenting on the opening, Region President and UK Managing Director Simon Keeping said: “The opening of our new UK HQ was fantastic. It was a great opportunity to thank everyone for the part they played in the move to Brookhill Way. I am very proud of our new Kärcher Head Office – and all the people who work there.”
Kärcher UK employs over 300 UK staff and has sold over 15 million machines.
