Commercial food equipment distributor purchases 48,000-square-foot facility in Wheeling, Illinois
Wheeling, Ill. — MPM Food Equipment Group announced the opening of its new 48,000-square-foot warehouse
and office space complex at 236 Egidi Drive in Wheeling, Ill., adding 38,000
square feet because of its steady growth over the past decade. The warehouse
space is four times the square footage that MPM had at its old facility.
“The expansion of the
capacity for MPM demonstrates our ongoing commitment to world class service and
unparalleled support to our clients,” said Larry Nicholson, CEO of MPM Food
Equipment Group. “With the efficiencies and economies of scale that the
facility provides to MPM, we are also able to continue our pledge of
competitive pricing as well. Our showroom will display some of the more than
150 high-quality manufacturers we represent, notably the PizzaMaster pizza
ovens and the Citrocasa juicers.”
MPM is the exclusive North
American distributor for PizzaMaster pizza ovens, which bake faster and more
evenly than other types of pizza ovens. And MPM is the Midwest and Northeast
distributor of Citrocasa, the fastest, most efficient juicers for on-demand
juicing needs.
MPM is well known in the
retail food-service industry for providing a unique service: receiving and
staging all of the client’s equipment at their warehouse, then delivering it to
the project site uncrated and assembled. Not only does this save the client
time and money, it takes the burden from the client of having to accept and
store equipment from multiple manufacturers delivered on different days or
weeks.
The new warehouse will have
space to organize and layout all of current projects into their own designated
staging areas, giving the team the ability to complete more work while moving
less equipment.
“The Wheeling location
offered so many advantages that we welcomed the opportunity to continue to
expand the business,” Nicholson said.
