Locally owned and operated - started service and repair of commercial refrigeration systems and grew to include commercial and residential air conditioning and heating systems
The focus in the beginning was local lounges and restaurants around Houma, Thibodaux, and Morgan City. Over time the company grew into marine and offshore galleys along with casinos and other large pleasure crafts. The specialization of marine galley work became a niche market and the company had huge growth in the 90’s to accommodate this. We moved to our brand new 20,000 sq ft facility which is still considered the largest kitchen equipment and supplies store in Louisiana. Since this expansion in retail was a big step, our restaurant and commercial business grew and we had to adjust our offerings to adapt. We added services such as kitchen design and specify, repair parts and service division, preventative maintenance programs, installation and start up services, and many more. We are now considered a very important partner to our customer’s businesses as a reliable, resourceful, knowledgeable supplier.
