Since 1950, Hatco has been a leader in creating innovative ideas for the foodservice industry: bold innovations in equipment that improves efficiency, reliability and profits. Products designed and built to handle the rugged demands of today's foodservice operations. Hatco is a company dedicated to exceptional customer service and quality engineered equipment offering maximum performance. Hatco Corporation continues to offer cost-effective solutions that meet the industry needs for versatility, productivity, profitability and service. Hatco quality equipment — Nothing less than the best.® In May of 2007, a monumental event in the history of Hatco Corporation occurred. With the stroke of a pen (actually, several pens), the employees of Hatco assumed 100% beneficial ownership of the company. As significant as this event was, it should be noted that the company started by Gordon and LaReine Hatch in 1950 remains a family corporation – only now our family is larger. Through the years, Hatco has been the home to some of the brightest minds, freest spirits, and most singular personalities in the foodservice industry.

Founded in 1955, Alto-Shaam continues to pioneer the commercial foodservice industry since its invention of the original Cook & Hold oven. As a leading manufacturer, we continue to drive innovation, as the first American manufacturer of the combination oven and inventor of the multi-cook oven category. Our equipment systems are designed to reduce waste, enhance efficiency, and elevate food quality for foodservice professionals worldwide. As a private, multi-generational company, our global team relentlessly pursues what’s next in product innovation with an appetite for quality and excellence. Our commitment drives continuous improvement in both our products and services. Join us as we build and empower lasting food service success.
