The situation of the MHK Group
As one of Europe’s largest purchasing and service network groups, the MHK Group realises significantly more favourable purchasing conditions and takes advantage of the numerous synergy effects of administration, in marketing and in all services relating to the actual business.
In its core segment – the kitchen industry – the MHK Group unites more medium-sized kitchen retail partners than any other association. Commercial partners are supported in all areas with a comprehensive range of services provided by our own companies. In the past financial year, we have once again consolidated and expanded our position as market leader.
The MHK Group was able to close the 2022 financial year with a new record in turnover: trading volume rose to 9,727 billion euro, representing an increase of 9.1 percent compared to the previous year (8,914 billion euro). Domestic sales increased by 5.5 percent.
The average value of a kitchen sold increased from 15.147 euro to 17.570 euro.
In 2022, the group was able to acquire new specialist retailers at home and abroad as trading partners. The number of members increased from 3.633 to 3.877. In Germany, 2.759 specialist dealers (previous year: 2.551) were members of the MHK Group as of 31 December 2022.
