MEMBERS of the public and invited guests gathered to celebrate the official launch of a new range of kitchens at Optiplan Kitchens in the Kelvin Road showroom, Swindon.

The newly-refitted showroom is of special significance to the chain as it sits on the same site as the manufacturing facility Manor Cabinets, meaning all of the kitchens sold are handmade right next door.

Showroom manager Richard Stone said: “We’re looking forward to welcoming people here and showing off our fantastic range of kitchens.”

Optiplan’s refit is a sign of its growth as well as its commitment to investing in the local economy.

With a history in cabinet making spanning more than 30 years, Optiplan offers a range of handcrafted kitchens, from the classic country look to a contemporary style.

The team provide free home design visits and project management, as well as offering appliances such as AEG, Siemens, Miele, Bosch and Neff. Visit www.optiplankitchens.co.uk
