Our Story

Built to serve from the beginning

Our roots trace back to 1926 and a humble ice cream shop run by a certain Charles Taylor. He’d grown weary of the painfully slow process of making ice cream. So, he turned the world upside down by inventing the very first automatic batch ice cream freezer.

When news of his invention spread, Charles quickly found himself in the equipment manufacturing business. He continued to expand and innovate, and Taylor Company as we know it began to take shape.

Driving Modern Foodservice

Today, we enjoy a well-earned reputation for quality engineering and exceptional service. With headquarters located in small-town Rockton, Illinois, our global reach includes over 160 distributors in 125 countries.

While we’ve come a long way, we don’t plan on slowing down any time soon. We’ll keep breaking new ground with equipment while delivering a level of service that goes above and beyond. We call it being “built to serve” and you can read more about it on the Taylor Company Built To Serv webpage.
