Global Food Equipment history

Global Food Equipment (Global) was founded in 1978 offering general maintenance and repairs to the food industry and shopping centres.

Other foodservice-market needs inspired many more innovations and, by 1988, when Nemco saw its first major facility expansion, the company had truly evolved from a machine shop to a “manufacturer of food equipment.”

In 1995, Nemco’s product offering expanded again with a line of waffle and cone bakers.

A year later, in 2002, Nemco completed a very impactful acquisition, purchasing the extremely well-known, original Roll-A-Grill line of hot-dog cooking equipment and accessories from Connolly.

In 2008, with another acquisition, Nemco augmented its food-merchandising equipment capabilities, particularly with respect to graphics customization.

A year later, in 2011, Nemco opened its new 5,000 square-foot West Coast warehouse distribution center in Arizona, extending its rapid-response order-and-service fulfillment capabilities to foodservice customers across the country.

At the same time, Nemco began turning inward with an industrial-design mentality to improve upon existing products, which yielded, for example, an even smarter and more labor-efficient Easy Chopper 3 in 2015.
