Reading, UK, 1 June 2015 – Howden Joinery Group Plc, the UK’s leading supplier of kitchens, has selected Stibo Systems’ award-winning product information management (PIM) solution for efficient and effective management of product information across its multitude of marketing channels.

“We see STEP as a timely investment in our continued growth. Our customers increasingly demand high quality, consistent and tailored product information across all media and channels, and the manual processes and home-grown solutions we’ve traditionally used to manage product information are no longer sufficient to support these demands.” said Chris Adkin, Head of Marketing Systems, Howden Joinery Group Plc.
