Ltd., part of the €14.6 billion Liebherr Group and a global leader in premium home refrigeration known for its innovation and precision engineering, hosted a distributor meet in Surat as part of its ongoing efforts to strengthen channel partnerships and enhance product knowledge across key markets.

The focused three-hour session brought together distributors and trade partners from the region, providing a platform for in-depth interaction, product training, and exchange of market insights.

The session featured a comprehensive introduction to Liebherr’s full range of refrigeration solutions, including detailed, model-wise product explanations and discussions on the relevance of fully integrated and premium refrigeration in modern Indian kitchens. Emphasis was placed on key differentiators such as design integration, performance efficiency, advanced cooling technologies, and features tailored for Indian usage patterns.

Speaking on the initiative, Kapil Agarwal, Managing Director Sales, Liebherr Appliances India, said,

“Strong distributor partnerships are central to our growth strategy in India. Sessions like these allow us to directly engage with our channel partners, deepen product understanding, and align on market opportunities. Surat is a key market for us, and this meet reflects our focus on empowering distributors with the right knowledge and tools to deliver value to customers seeking premium, future-ready refrigeration solutions.”

The meet also witnessed the presence of leading architects and interior designers, including Ar. Kunal Engineer and Ar. Pinal Engineer, reinforcing Liebherr’s growing engagement with the design community. In this context, Liebherr introduced the ‘Liebherr Design Circle’, an exclusive experiential networking programme curated for architects and interior designers. The initiative aims to foster collaboration, learning, and creative exchange around fully integrated cooling solutions and luxury kitchen design, while offering members opportunities for recognition through curated awards, knowledge sessions, and immersive brand experiences. The Design Circle was well received by the attending design professionals, who appreciated the brand’s structured approach to engaging the design fraternity and supporting design-led innovation in premium kitchens.

Sharing perspective on the initiative, Ar. Kunal Engineer said,

“There is a growing demand for fully integrated, design-sensitive kitchen solutions that align seamlessly with contemporary architecture. The Liebherr Design Circle creates a valuable platform for architects to engage with advanced refrigeration technologies while encouraging meaningful exchange and collaboration within the design community.”

Ar. Pinal Engineer added,

“Luxury kitchens today demand a thoughtful balance between aesthetics, performance, and integration. The introduction of the Liebherr Design Circle is a well-timed initiative that enables architects and interior designers to explore innovation, share ideas, and collectively elevate the design conversation around premium kitchen spaces.”

Participants also engaged in interactive discussions around evolving consumer expectations, premiumisation trends in home appliances, and how distributors can effectively address customer demand for high-performance, visually cohesive kitchen solutions. The meet concluded with an open Q&A session, encouraging dialogue, feedback, and knowledge-sharing.

Surat’s rapid urban development, rising disposable incomes, and increasing preference for premium home appliances make it an important market for Liebherr. The city continues to witness growing demand for sophisticated kitchen solutions, presenting strong opportunities for channel-led expansion.

The distributor meet was hosted at Pushpa Agency, one of Surat’s oldest and most premium electronics showrooms, established in 1996. With two locations in Nanpura and Vesu, Pushpa Agency offers solutions across leading electronics and premium kitchen appliance brands, including Liebherr.
