ROTPUNKT UK, an award-winning designer and manufacturer of climate friendly German furniture for the contemporary home and kitchen, is delighted to welcome Lewis Martin, newly appointed area sales manager for South East England.
Lewis started on Monday 4th November 2024, and is part of the growing UK sales team, which includes Matt Phillips (head of UK sales & operations), Kim Rochester (customer relation manager UK), Dave Humphries (area manager UK South West & Midlands), and John McWhinnie (area manager UK North). Bringing over a decade of industry-specific experience in the design and supply of German kitchen furniture, Lewis has developed an in-depth understanding of the KBB sector following previous design roles and his most recent role with premium appliance brand, Miele.
From design and sales through to key accounts, project management and leadership roles, Lewis understands the importance of building strong, lasting relationships in order to identify new opportunities and develop, manage and drive sales.
Lewis Martin says, “As the UK furniture market continues to serve variety-seeking consumers with a tendency to choose a range of products and services, we need to ensure our suppliers can confidently deliver more specialist requirements to their customers. I am therefore thrilled to represent Rotpunkt in a sales capacity, and put my experience to good use by helping retailers sell our comprehensive range of furniture for the contemporary homeowner.”
Matt Phillips says, “We are excited to have Lewis on board, he will be a great addition to our team as customers will get to benefit from his passion and drive. This appointment requires a unique combination of sales acumen, critical thinking and collaboration, and given his previous experience I am confident Lewis will become a tangible link between Rotpunkt and our customers in the South East of England.”
From contemporary open-plan kitchens, walk-in wardrobes and multi-purpose living solutions, Lewis and the rest of UK sales team are now primed and ready to present the company’s latest innovations to its network of independent retailers.
