For me, the emerging sustainability trends provide a really exciting proposition for the UK home, and so it feels good to now be in a position to cater to this rising demand and also educate our customers on the benefits of more specialist taps like our water filtration and steaming hot water solutions too.”

Hatton has a commercial background in showroom sales and bathroom design, with her experience at City Plumbing in Leeds. She has also had senior account management roles within the digital marketing sector.

Hatton said: “I am excited to step into my new sales role for such an innovative and progressive brand, which continues to push the boundaries of product design and leading customer service. The ability to connect with people and find the best possible solutions for their needs is what drives me in business, so I look forward to offering a portfolio of products to my customers in the north and throughout Scotland.”

Peter Phelan, sales director at Abode, said: “I believe that as a business, we provide a unique offer for professionals in the KBB industry wanting to advance their career, as we are 100% committed to elevating the prestige of kitchen and bathroom brassware in the UK and globally. Therefore, I am pleased to welcome Annette and Victoria to the company and look forward to seeing them build on their sales territories.”
