In a time and economy where the average age of a company is 15 years, it is incredible to think that Peerless has been around for 100 yrs.   This is a credit to the high quality of the machines produced by Peerless then… and now.  Peerless products have evolved over time, changed to meet the market needs and have added and retired brands.   The company still remains in Sidney Ohio – very close to the original site it begin on 100 yrs ago.

This year, Peerless Food Equipment will celebrate our 100 th anniversary ALL YEAR!!!   We hope you will help us celebrate too! Visit our website at Peerless Food to find out where we will be celebrating and stop by to join us!
