About BroilKing®/Cadco

The people dining on foie gras, canapés, and spring rolls at the annual fund-raiser rarely ask about the buffet servers and warming trays that keep their foods deliciously hot. But no doubt BroilKing, an international leader in commercial-quality cooking and serving appliances, makes these catering and entertaining essentials.

The Bronx, New York, is home to the original BroilKing Corporation manufacturer that produced small electric broilers and cooker fryers using the "Crown" brand name. After its 1964 debut, the company over the years acquired several appliance manufacturers and product lines including the forty-year-old BroilKing brand of broilers and rotisseries.

In 1999, Cadco, Ltd., a leader in commercial foodservice equipment, acquired the cooking and serving appliance company and changed the name to BroilKing Corp. Today's BroilKing Corp. products include an assortment of convection ovens, buffet ranges, tabletop warming trays, griddles, and more.

BroilKing's parent corporation, Cadco, Ltd., specializes in countertop convection and combination ovens. A few BroilKing and Cadco professional-grade items are imported from Europe, but most are manufactured at their Winsted headquarters in northwest Connecticut.
