Smart Tech, Sustainability To Play Roles in New Welbilt Center

Welbilt, an Ali Group company, expects to wrap up construction of its new Experience Center in Coppell, Texas, in the second half of this year.

The facility—set to showcase cutting-edge kitchen technology, smart automation and sustainable foodservice solutions—will offer an interactive, hands-on environment for operators, dealers, distributors, manufacturers’ representatives, consultants and end users. Visitors can test equipment in fully operational settings, gain insights from Welbilt’s teams, and discover how turnkey solutions can help them overcome industry challenges like rising labor costs, space limitations and sustainability demands.

Additionally, the center will act as the home to Welbilt University, providing training, along with dedicated brand support areas and warehousing space, totaling more than 130,000 square feet.

“This project represents a transformative step in how we engage with our customers and partners,” says Filippo Berti, chairman and chief executive officer of the Ali Group, parent company to Welbilt. “By offering an immersive, hands-on experience, we’re reinforcing our commitment to delivering the industry’s most comprehensive solutions, securing our position as the global leader in foodservice equipment and innovation, and showcasing our unique ability to provide turnkey solutions worldwide.”
