The Globe Equipment Company Inc. has demonstrated extensive capabilities in delivering commercial kitchen appliances and food service equipment through numerous prime federal contract awards spanning multiple procurement mechanisms. The company's product portfolio includes ice making machines, self-heating griddles, steam jacket kettles, microwave ovens, food warming cabinets, convection steamers, refrigeration units, reach-in freezers, merchandisers, ranges, griddles, and specialized equipment such as blast chillers and pressureless steamers.
