About

Glosson Food Equipment is a long-established foodservice equipment dealer and equipment service provider based in Fort Wayne, Indiana with a regional service area that also includes South Bend and parts of Michigan. The business traces its roots back to 1953, when Gene Glosson — after serving in the U.S. Navy and working as a service technician for Hobart Manufacturing — founded the company to sell and service commercial kitchen equipment. Over the ensuing decades, Glosson expanded its service territory and product offerings, became a premier authorized sales and service agent for top brands like Hobart, Traulsen, Vulcan, Baxter, Wolf, and Berkel, and developed a reputation for quality service and technical expertise in the foodservice equipment industry. Today, Glosson Food Equipment continues to operate as a family-oriented provider focused on equipment sales, service, parts, and full support solutions for foodservice professionals. Their inventory includes new commercial kitchen equipment as well as a large and frequently updated selection of used equipment — including cooking, baking, food-prep, weigh-wrap, and warewash machines — all inspected and tested by experienced technicians before sale. Beyond equipment sales, Glosson offers a comprehensive suite of services designed to support commercial kitchens throughout their lifecycle, including consultation and layout assistance, professional installation, product delivery, preventative maintenance, used equipment repair, and even 24/7 emergency service to minimize kitchen downtime. Their technical team is factory-authorized to service many major brands and is well-versed in both new and refurbished equipment. With its blend of equipment expertise, service capabilities, and decades of industry experience, Glosson serves independent restaurants, institutional foodservice facilities, supermarkets, bakeries, and other commercial food operations looking to outfit, maintain, or upgrade their kitchens.
