Re: Fagor Buy Brandt!
Yeah but is it really going to go down that way? Somehow I don’t think things will be just as simple as that.
Consider that Brandt have staff and premises within the UK, Fagor has only a sales office to my knowledge and obviously some form of distribution chain although I don’t see any volume there based on the calls we get. The vast majority of “Fagor” calls we get are badged up machines for PABL under various guises.
The Brandt name I’ve never really seen that much other then through a couple of retailers that push it, but I do see a bit of De Dietrich here and there. But again, I do see a fair old bit of it branded, Brandt that is.
The other thing to bear in mind is, does Graham want the Brandt Group stuff on his books? Will Fagor continue with AIS given that they will have more volume now?
In the end it’s up in the air and I wouldn’t be jumping to any conclusions until the dust settles and the fat lady sings the final note.
