Denver-based HomeSphere<\/a>, a popular platform connecting building product manufacturers to mid-market homebuilders, has announced a partnership with Kichler. With this addition, Kichler joins Progress Lighting on HomeSphere, offering builder members access to incentives for both lighting brands within the Coleto Brands portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to HomeSphere, the collaboration with Kichler will provide its builder members with access to exclusive rebates on Kichler products, including indoor and outdoor lighting, landscape lighting, and ceiling fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cKichler delivers lighting solutions that combine design flexibility with trusted performance,\u201d said Kichler vp\/Builder & Specification Sales Todd Roy. \u201cPartnering with HomeSphere allows us to help thousands of builders streamline sourcing and elevate their client offerings.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a Coleto Brands executive who LNN<\/em> reached out to for clarification on how the selling and rebate process works, builders purchase their Kichler and Progress lighting products through a showroom or distributor. Those sales are then reported by the retailer to HomeSphere, and the rebate is sent by HomeSphere to the builders along with any other rebates for categories such as HVAC, countertops, and roofing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Added Greg Schwarzer, president and CEO of HomeSphere, \u201cKichler is consistently recognized as a top lighting brand used by homebuilders. In joining Progress Lighting, a long-time HomeSphere customer, Kichler strengthens our national lighting offering and gives our builders more ways to protect their margins in unpredictable times.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Established in 1999, HomeSphere has a builder network that reportedly constructs and closes more than 250,000 new homes and units per year, making it among the largest homebuilding groups in the country by volume. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
