Anixter International Inc. in Glenview, IL a Fortune 500 company and the leading global distributor of wire, cable, communications connectivity products … is using a specially designed modular kitchen to save space, build employee participation and productivity, and cut labor cost in half at its new headquarters.


Our kitchens are built completely off-site in a factory. This allows job contractors to prepare foodservice area without any interference from our side, which occurs in typical case.

The 2-week installation time fits well with the buildings fast-track schedule.

Our two-station customer operated POS greatly reduces ordering time ( on average 6 seconds per transaction) and waiting line build-ups.

Ergonomic, full featured kitchen allows Chef Cooney to prepare the many dishes offered in his extensive cook-to-order menu.
