Wasserstrom Acquires Breckenridge Kitchen Equipment & Design

The Wasserstrom Co. has acquired Breckenridge Kitchen Equipment & Design, based in Huron, Ohio. In a Jan. 27 release, Wasserstrom states that the acquisition will help strengthen its equipment project management capabilities and further its ability to offer advanced kitchen design while broadening its market reach to a more expansive customer base.

“From our first conversation, it was clear that Breckenridge shares our commitment to excellence in foodservice facility planning and execution,” says Brad Wasserstrom, president of Wasserstrom, in the release. “We have long admired their work and are eager to see what our combined teams can achieve together.”

Breckenridge, founded in 1935, specializes in the planning, design and furnishing of foodservice facilities throughout the U.S., with a focus on hospitality, healthcare, education and restaurant markets. Post-acquisition, it will continue to operate from its current headquarters.

Richard Pohl, founder and president of Breckenridge, says, “We are exceptionally pleased to have the opportunity to join forces with one of the premier dealers in the food service industry. We believe that our capabilities mesh perfectly with the Wasserstrom approach to customer service and project management.”

Wasserstrom, based in Columbus, Ohio, distributes foodservice equipment and supplies to restaurants, hotels and other foodservice establishments nationwide. In 2025, it earned the Taco Bell Star Award and Cava’s Service Vendor of the Year Award.
