We’ve been operating for 35 years, with a key point of difference between us and our competitors, being that we’re also the manufacturer and therefore we supply our clients direct. What’s more, our brand is highly respected by consumers, with this adding value to our clients’ property offer.
We also deliver a level of service which is arguably the best in the market, and very much supported by full management coverage right across Scotland.
“As a long-established family owned and run Scottish business, I’m very proud of how we’ve become such a major and respected supplier of kitchens to leading developers and house builders.”

Our Team
James McMeechan Operations Manager
My kitchen journey started back in 2006, over this time I have built up a very extensive range of knowledge that has helped me achieve where I am today. I joined Ashley Ann in May 2017 doing contracts design and sales where I dealt with all tender designs and pricing. In September 2019 I was promoted to Operations Manager overseeing all aspects of the day to day running of the team whilst continuing to tender and negotiate new developments.
Steven Thomson Sales Manager
Originally from a manufacturing background in engineering. I progressed into a sales managers role working in both the retail and contract sectors for brand names such as LG Electronics, Whirlpool, Smeg and Franke. I owned my own business for three years designing and supplying kitchens to a few key clients which then led me to the position of Contract Sales Manager with Ashley Ann. The knowledge I have gained over the last 15 years has given me a far better understanding of all aspects of design, supply and installation of kitchen products to the ever changing contracts market.
David Kerr Installation Manager
I have worked within the kitchen industry for over 30 years installing kitchens. I joined Ashley Ann in January 2019 to take on the task of organising installers and ensuring kitchens are installed to the high standard we expect an Ashley Ann kitchen to be fitted. I work closely with the team to coordinate customer care and remedial issues are dealt with promptly and efficiently.
Elaine Barnet Contracts Manager
I studied Engineering and Accountancy in the late 70s and early 80s, I started in the kitchen industry in 1983 and have been involved in all aspects of the business for 33 years.

Lauren Ward Contracts Administrator
I’ve worked in kitchen industry since 2016 and joined Ashley Ann in November 2019 as the Contracts Administrator. This allows me to work closely with the designers and actually see how the design process begins all the way through to the end result which is rewarding.
Nina Marshall Client Design Consultant
After studying Display Design in Glasgow for two years, I joined the Ashley Ann Stirling team back in January 2016 as the Showroom Administrator as my first job within the industry. From there, I have been building my knowledge and experience which led me to join the Contracts team, initially as their Administrator. I then became one of the Contracts Kitchen Design Consultants in October 2018.
