Sam Dégabriele

Head Office

Sam started the company in 1980 and has been the sole director and owner ever since.

His emphasis has always been on innovation, customer service and excellent staff relations.

“I believe you cannot provide the excellence in product and service our clients expect unless you have total staff loyalty and respect.

Sam’s attitude towards customer service is based on a very simple philosophy “Treat your clients the way you like to be treated. We are all consumers and we all appreciate and understand good service.”

In the 40 years that Sam has been involved in this business and in the kitchen industry, he has seen a lot of companies come and go and he has also seen many companies change ownership. Dégabriele Kitchens has been in the same hands during all this time.

It takes passion and dedication to steer a company over such a long period of time, Dégabriele Kitchens’ secret has always been to innovate and to set ever higher standards.

Unlike a lot of other kitchen and joinery company owners and operators, Sam’s background was not trade related.

Sam was able to, therefore, bring a different perspective to the running of Dégabriele Kitchens, placing the emphasis more on the quality of the service and the accommodation of the customers, rather than the traditional, trade based approach.

When not thinking about kitchens, Sam likes to relax by reading, gardening, enjoying classical music and travelling.
