AeriTek Global Holdings LLC continued stockpiling commercial refrigeration brands by acquiring the parent company of Continental Refrigerator, National Refrigeration & Air Conditioning Products. The deal includes the assets of both the Continental and National Comfort Products brands, per a release announcing the transaction.

All management and staff will remain in place and Continental will continue to operate as usual, per an email from the company.

Continental’s commercial kitchen equipment portfolio includes reach-in coolers and freezers, sandwich prep worktops, pizza prep units and griddle stands. AeriTek also manufactures products made under the Federal Industries, Imbera, Torrey, QBD and Minus Forty brand names.

“This acquisition is exactly the type of transaction we envisioned when we first invested in AeriTek,” said Mark Paolano, a partner at Mill Point Capital in a statement. “With Continental’s stainless steel kitchen equipment alongside the existing beverage merchandising and display capabilities, AeriTek now offers products that span the full foodservice environment, from front-of-house merchandising to back-of-house kitchen refrigeration and food processing products. That breadth is unique in our industry and gives customers a single partner for their full equipment needs.”

Growth via acquisition has been a key part of AeriTek’s strategy in recent months. “Over the past year, AeriTek has completed three acquisitions that have fundamentally reshaped the business,” says Sebastian Bustamante, principal at Mill Point Capital. “With multiple U.S. manufacturing facilities and deeply entrenched relationships across the largest dealers and buying groups in the foodservice channel, the company has built meaningful domestic scale. AeriTek is now well-positioned to drive cross-selling, capture operational efficiencies and drive tangible growth across the portfolio.”
