Press Release Summary: Leading bathroom, kitchen and heating distributor BCG,
formerly known as Broughton Crangrove Galley Matrix, announces its new managing
director, Chris Honer.

Press Release Body:
Chris is promoted from the position of Sales Director for BCG, which he has held for
over three years. Chris\'s primary responsibility and key focus in his new role will
be to develop the next phase of the BCG business strategy, based at BCG's head
office in Worcester.

Chris is widely experienced in sales and marketing and joined BCG in March 2005,
since then he has totally restructured and refocused the sales management process,
established an effective sales training academy and led the major re-branding
campaign of Broughton Crangrove Galley Matrix as BCG last autumn.

He was also behind the idea for The Big Tour, the largest travelling showcase of
suppliers and product, which first took to the road for the first time in 2007 -
spreading the message of the BCG XL brand proposition to over 750 customers
nationally. The Big Tour goes from strength to strength and the 2008 Tour will
shortly be rolled out across venues up and down the country, building on last year's
successes. The result of BGC's sales and marketing strategy review, overseen by
Chris, is one coherent corporate image which is the envy of the competition.

Prior to joining BCG, Chris achieved profitable growth within three of the largest
distribution businesses in the industry. He has a large breadth of experience across
all facets of a distribution business and has over 10 years' successful track record
as a company director. Commenting on the appointment, Chris Honer said: "BCG
represents a wonderful opportunity for me personally, and for everyone else who is
fortunate enough to work for the brand at this exciting time. We have already come a
long way in delivering on customer expectations, a programme which we are totally
committed to.

"The headline figures of our 2008 Customer Satisfaction Survey show that BCG's
customers are generally very satisfied with our service and are becoming even more
loyal to the business as a result of the various improvements implemented over the
past twelve months. We will do whatever it takes to make sure we maintain and
strengthen our position, so that customers are even more satisfied with our service
when they complete the Survey next year."
