Immediately following World War II, Manitowoc Equipment Works began building a high-quality line of commercial refrigerated display cases for the emerging supermarket industry. It then pioneered the successful development of commercial ice-making, which led Manitowoc Foodservice Group to become the world’s leading producer of cold-focused commercial foodservice equipment. Mention the names Manitowoc, Kolpak, Servend, Multiplex, MBS, McCall or Harford in restaurants, convenience stores, hotels, institutions, or commissaries almost anywhere, and quality and performance comes to mind.
