GROHE X Fact Snack
Consumer as creator – Customized water experiences
Empowering consumers to create their own spaces will drive our business in the coming years. We’ve seen how the home is becoming transformed into a zone of self-expression and self-care. The kitchen is increasingly a space to enjoy time together, while the bathroom is a private retreat where the nurturing power of water can be explored. To tap into the growing consumer demand to get creative, our products for kitchen and bathroom will have to be capable of expressing that aesthetic urge, or alternatively the desire for a project that makes a space feel like home. It's not just our end-user customers who need to be considered. Our professional partners want products and services that meet the changing needs of their businesses and allow them to recommend us to their clients with total confidence. Our two marketing experts Dana and Emanuela are joined by the new Leader GROHE SPA, Karl to talk us through the changing market and look at ways in which our consumer and professional customers’ demands interact.
