Ultimate Products, the owner, manager, designer and developer of an extensive range of value‑focused consumer goods brands, completed the acquisition of Salter Brands, a housewares brand, from FKA Brands, a furniture provider, for £32m. "The Salter name is synonymous with quality and reliability, and millions of households across the UK own a set of their scales or one of their many outstanding kitchenware products. Few other brands can boast of such a fantastic history and heritage, which includes playing a key role in the creation of West Bromwich Albion Football Club. We are delighted to be adding such an illustrious brand to our portfolio, and are honoured to be taking it into the next chapter of what has been a fascinating story since it began in 1760," Simon Showman, Ultimate Products CEO.
