Easy Ice Acquires Missouri Company

Easy Ice, a provider of managed commercial ice machine rentals, has closed on the acquisition of The Ice Factory in Missouri.

The Ice Factory (formerly known as Wally’s Refrigeration) has served Missouri since the late 1980s—operating out of Osage Beach and providing decades of customer service to the Lake of the Ozarks.

“I am very excited to grow the business in a unique recreational area such as the Lake of the Ozarks and the surrounding areas. The Ice Factory will enhance our position and allow us to offer superior service to our new customers as we expect to seamlessly tuck this operation into our Sedalia branch,” says Darren Boruff, chief acquisitions officer, in the release.

The Ice Factory’s primary equipment brands are Hoshizaki and Manitowoc, which are two brands that Easy Ice’s service team has decades worth of extensive experience.

Easy Ice has over 33,000 machines under its management across 47 states. Earlier this spring, the company acquired Tri Cities Supply Co. in Texas.
