Flora Lontou, founder of Despotiko Hotel in Mykonos, Greece, has been a fan of the brand for many years, purchasing two Kraakware Ceramic Lamps for her own home in 2012 before turning to our Trade service for help with her international projects. “When I started redecorating my three, sixty-year-old family hotels, I always needed a piece of OKA as a starting point,” the designer says. “I used to look for hours at the catalogues for inspiration, choosing smaller or bigger items that in a magic way gave the space atmosphere, symmetry, depth, colour and, most importantly, a focal point.” Flora notes that she has “never had any problems” with our international delivery service and sites the OKA team as “really friendly and efficient”, turning to our collection for its “impressive and yet totally familiar” style.
Creating long-standing relationships is one of our favourite parts about OKA Trade. To ensure we’re always serving our customers correctly, we constantly seek ways to improve. Recently, this involved improving our shipping costs for deliveries to the Republic of Ireland and Channel Islands, as well as improving our Northern Ireland Heavy & Fragile and Parcelforce delivery charges to be in line with those charged to mainland UK addresses, two moves that were warmly welcomed by our customers.
“The changes [OKA] made recently to make delivery costs reasonable for us in Northern Ireland have helped enormously,” says Ali Boston from Thompson Clarke Interiors. “We have a very positive experience working with OKA. I always know what we will get a quick response to emails or requests for quotes. Our clients and our designers all love the products, and there is always something that fits the brief.”
