Our story began in 1946 when Mr. Martin Kalman founded Hickory Industries with a vision of delivering top-notch products. Under his leadership, we expanded our offerings to include not only rotisseries and warmers but also high-quality stainless steel work tables. Since August 1994, we have been operating from our spacious 46,000-square-foot facility located in North Bergen, New Jersey. In October 1978, a new corporation was formed to acquire the assets and name of the old corporation. Steven Maroti, then President, and Aniko Heller, Vice President and Secretary, spearheaded this transition and carried the legacy forward.In 2017, the company saw a significant turning point when Ayman Megala, an Egyptian-American with extensive experience in the food service industry, acquired Hickory Industries.
