Tim confirms: “Sabichi now have the global brand rights of the PIFCO brand and we are sure they will focus their energy and continue growing it from within and beyond even its already long heritage of success across many diverse categories.”

“Following the success of the Haden brand acquisition and its re-launch, we are thrilled to have taken on another iconic British brand,” added Sachin Bagga, director of Sabichi Homewares. “PIFCO has a rich history in a variety of home products, ranging from the original days of lighting and torches, fans, hair dryers and ‘warmaspheres’ – the olden day heater! We will continue to do the brand justice and, most importantly, remain true to its core pillars of quality products and value for money.”
