About Us
Technology experts for over 100 years
We are known by consumers in Kent for our retail store, our product expertise and personal service. Our shop has been a feature on Tenterden High Street for over 100 years. Around 20 years ago, we moved into working with homeowners, developers and interior designers to bring more than just products.
Our knowledge of technology for automation, and integration of systems and products, allows us to design, plan and deliver immersive audio and visual experiences, anywhere. From tv walls to full smart home networking solutions and commercial space AV set up.
And we don’t stop there. Lighting control, shading, access systems and CCTV, all joined together, or not, to suit the needs of the space.
Our team are perfectionists; meaning every project is delivered to the same exacting standards. We’re passionate about technology and creating perfectly connected spaces with seamless control.
Alex worked in Potters’ retail shop on Tenterden High Street as a Saturday Boy at the age of 14.
After university, Alex soon returned to immerse himself day-to-day in the technology industry's developments. Appointed as our managing director in 2013, Alex leads the business but also remains our key spokesman and an expert in design and product selection as required on all projects.
Working with developers, architects, interior designers and end-users to create 'next level' solutions for residential and commercial spaces, Alex's knowledge is what builds and maintains our 'technology partner' status with so many.

With 22 years in the industry, Jamie brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to Potters.
He loves a project that requires full reconstruction of a space, especially cinema rooms where the most technical integration of concealed equipment with optimum acoustic performance is required.
In the 16 years (so far) he’s been part of the Potters team, Jamie has supported our engineering apprentices in their training, whilst delivering countless projects for our customers in the UK and overseas. In fact, he’s engineered and installed solutions ‘on the seas’ too, on luxury yachts in various ports!

Toby’s favourite jobs have been those that took him overseas, especially into the Swiss Alps to kit out a ski lodge with full AV set up!
