CFESA Annual Conference
Rapids is heading to Palm Springs for the 2027 CFESA Annual Conference. This event brings together the food equipment service industry: field technicians, manufacturers, and the service leaders who keep commercial kitchens running.
Why We Attend
Service is a core part of what we do. Our STAR team is made up of CFESA-certified technicians who repair and maintain everything from cold-side refrigeration and beverage systems to hot-side gas and electric cooking equipment. CFESA's standards for training and certification shape how we work. This conference keeps us connected to the latest equipment, best practices, and the manufacturer partners we rely on to deliver fast, reliable repairs.
Meet Our Team
Nick Schmitt, Vice President of Solutions, and Dennis Snyder, Service Manager, will be on site to meet with manufacturers, service partners, and industry peers. If you're attending, we'd love to connect and talk about equipment service, maintenance programs, or how our team supports foodservice operations across the Midwest.
