Kinsman Group

What Kinsman Group does

Kinsman Group is an Australian designer, manufacturer and retailer of cabinetry for residential kitchens, wardrobes, laundries and home offices. Founded around 2004 and operating for over 20 years, the company runs a centralised NSW factory producing approximately 70,000 cabinets and 100,000 drawers annually under a 7-year warranty, and sells through three product tiers — Designer Range (premium, fully assembled), Studio Range (value-priced, fully assembled) and Xpress Range (flat-pack, 10-business-day delivery) — covering premium, mid-market and budget segments respectively.

The business distributes almost exclusively through 24 dedicated showrooms embedded inside The Good Guys appliance stores across NSW, VIC, QLD and SA, supplemented by free in-showroom, in-home and virtual design consultations supported by 3D visualisation, an AI Kitchen Planner, a Room Planner web tool and a "My Kitchen" customer portal for project tracking and milestone payments (10% deposit, 30% progress, 60% final). Revenue is generated almost entirely from one-time project sales, with interest-free finance through Humm90 enabling larger basket sizes.

Kinsman operates as a subsidiary of Enstrom Pty Ltd (ABN 68 097 859 508) through Courtsean Pty Ltd (ACN 152 876 081) and Kitchen Group Pty Ltd. The company is privately held, reports no public financials, and has been the official cabinetry supplier on Channel Nine's The Block renovation series across multiple seasons, alongside a sustained brand collaboration with celebrity interior designer Darren Palmer.
