With the sale of the Foodservice operations successfully completed in December 2007, AGA and Rangemaster now lead our family of consumer brands which include Divertimenti, Falcon, Fired Earth, Grange, Heartland, La Cornue, Leisure, Marvel, Rayburn, Stanley and Waterford.

Going forward we propose to grow the business by five measurable strands:

1. Increasing sales of AGA and Rangemaster;

2. Improving returns of Fired Earth Earth and Grange

3. Growing overseas sales

4. Investing in marketing and customer relationship management

5. Introducing cost improvement programmes across the Group

We believe we have the product and routes to market to achieve sustained growth.  We have committed substantial resources over a long period of time to product development and this is being reflected in a strong pipeline of exciting products.  We have the capacity to support our plans in both manufacturing and sourcing terms.
