History of Scavolini in Vancouver

Why did Siema Kitchen and Bath choose Scavolini. Scavolini was introduced to Vancouver in 2008 by Siema Kitchen & Bath. In 2008, Siema Kitchen and Bath were looking to expand their business; the Mohammad brothers were recommended by a fellow Iranian Scavolini dealer and friend of Eiman & Emad to become dealers for Scavolini. He gave them great confidence and reassurance that Scavolini was a fantastic company to work with, in their branding, product offerings, quality, and service. Of course, the fact that Scavolini is a family-run company strongly appealed to Eiman and Emad Mohammad as they shared many of the same values. From the very initial contact with the Scavolini USA CEO they were impressed with Scavolini, they grew confident and excited to become part of this family-run company’s expansion worldwide. As Emad says the quality and durability of materials, variety of styles, colors, finishes, warranty, and service was unmatched to any other manufacturers they had been introduced to. What sets Italian manufactures apart from other Manfacturing companies is the high-quality products made from the highest quality craftmanship which can be clearly seen in Scavolini products; down to the last detail. Eiman and Emad Mohammad also knew with their near 20 years’ experience as installers and contractors, they could present Scavolini very well in the Vancouver market. They themselves could offer their future clients the best technical advice while introducing and supplying a high-end Italian cabinetry to Vancouver. Emad & Eiman knew that Scavolini was the right brand which would coincide with their experience.

Scavolini has always strived to supply the best products and experience for clients whether they have a full-home project or a kitchen remodel. They have over 900 showrooms in Italy alone so the experience and reputation they have built over the years is a testament for their company and a contributing factor in the Mohammad brothers’ decision to work with Scavolini. Siema Kitchen and Bath is Vancouver’s only Scavolini store. Over the years they have seen a greater interest and recognition for Scavolini products; for its quality, variety and the “work of art” that Scavolini cabinetry creates through its craftsmanship and attention to detail. Scavolini markets as a brand for the people of Italy so it has always impressed Eiman and Emad Mohammad how all Italians are familiar with Scavolini and are proud to call it an Italian brand. As Eiman says; “They almost feel that Scavolini belongs to them, this is partly because Scavolini advertise them as bringing the kitchen for the people of Italy and this really sits well with Italians.” Scavolini is not just a kitchen cabinetry company they manufacture cabinetry for the entire home; bathrooms, closet, living and even outdoor cabinetry supplied for the commercial and residential sectors; Multi Family, single family; renovation or brand-new homes which are available in many styles from sleek and modern to ornate and traditional.
