BBG and Vogel’s part company

BBG Distribution Limited and Vogel’s Products BV have announced that they will cease trading exclusively with each other as of March 2nd 2009 and that BBG will no longer represent the brand in the UK as from March 23rd.

BBG and Vogel’s told HCD that they have reached this decision “by mutual consent based on the changing face of the European and Worldwide Retail Sector”.

“Vogel’s would very much like to thank BBG for the fantastic job BBG has done for Vogel’s in England, Scotland and Wales. It has been a pleasure working with them,” commented Gerdi Vogels, Vogel’s CEO.

Gordon Dutch CEO at BBG added: “Vogel’s has been a wonderful product line for BBG, but with the changing face of the Retail environments Worldwide and especially in Europe, both parties felt it would be best to separate at this point”.

Both BBG and Vogel’s will be contacting retailers directly to advise them of final order dates and how their future businesses in the UK will be conducted.
