Dundrum funny man, Patrick Kielty was on top form at the recent KRI Awards in Dublin - the first ever event rewarding excellence in kitchen design, innovation and customer service in Ireland.

After announcing that Northern Ireland company, McAuley Kitchens scooped the ‘Best Kitchen Showroom' award for their Boucher Road, Belfast showroom he immediately grabbed his pint of Guinness to toast their success.

Wesley McAuley, Director of McAuley Kitchens said: "When we chose the site on Boucher Road it was a vast empty shell. Our plan was to fill that space with great kitchens using all of our knowledge and know-how amassed over 50 years so to be named ‘Best Kitchen Showroom in Northern Ireland' is a wonderful way to celebrate our achievements.

"We put a lot of thought, time and energy into the layout and ambience of the showroom and the decisions we made, from what brands we featured to the placement of our lighting, were all taken with our customers at the forefront of our minds.

"We have a first class team delivering a high standard of customer service across all of our disciplines, from consultation to installation, and our commitment to quality workmanship will continue to be the cornerstone of how we do business."

McAuley Kitchens stock an impressive range of kitchen brands including Alno, Second Nature, Metris and Kitchen Stori.
