CASE STUDY: Culinary Concepts has acquired a reputation as a leading supplier of quality cutlery and tableware. Since its conception in 1999, Culinary Concepts has been providing customers with high quality products at affordable prices through combination of Internet sales, mail order service through various exhibitions and shows across the UK.
New products and designs are launched every season, making Culinary Concepts a company at the leading edge of contemporary dining. Culinary Concepts currently exhibits at more than twenty of the UK's premier consumer exhibitions where they showcase new product ranges including the latest stunning silver plated gifts and accessories collection.
Passionate about the products they sell and the service they offer, the team at Culinary Concepts provide an efficient service for the discerning buyer. The aim is to design, develop and manufacture high quality, innovative stainless steel and silver plated tableware, gifts and home accessories. The first Culinary Concepts Shop was opened in December 2004 in the heart of Guildford city centre. At the same time, the company started to think about creation of a Web site to expose quality products across the country and be able to sell them on the Internet.
