Browne Commercial Smallware in Toronto & Canada

Browne Commercial Smallware in Toronto & Canada

Browne has supplied commercial kitchens since 1949, starting as a family run trading business in Canada. Today it designs and distributes cookware, buffet equipment, dinnerware, and glassware from its head office in Aurora, Ontario. Why choose Browne over a smallware brand like Vollrath? It's a Canadian company that covers the kitchen, the bar, and the table in one catalogue. Browne handles its own warranty, with one year repair or replace coverage on most items, 90 days on coated fry pans, and a lifetime warranty on Thermalloy stainless steel cookware. One standout is the Browne Full Size 8 Quart Stainless Steel Chafer with Folding Stand. Its collapsible frame folds down and sets back up in seconds, and built in clips hold the cover while you refill. We also carry the Browne ELEMENTS Stainless Steel Fry Pan, which works on induction. Most Browne cookware and chafers are quick ship and usually go out within 1-2 business days, while Browne glassware is typically special order with an estimated lead time of 1-3 days. Phoenix Food Equipment ships Browne from Vaughan across Toronto, the GTA, and the rest of Canada. For USA orders, please contact us to confirm availability.

Is Browne a good brand for commercial smallwares?
