Commercial cooking equipment manufacturer growing in Hazleton, PA
Therma-Tek Range Corp., located in Valmont Industrial Park, supplies commercial gas cooking equipment to the food industry throughout the United States and has expanded to other countries as well over its 10-year existence, said Jason Seiwell, manager of operations.
When the company was founded in 2005 by Surjit and Swaneel Kalsi, they started with a few local engineers to help develop a product line of cooking equipment. Today, the company employs 23 people and manufactures a full-line of cooking equipment at its facility in Greater Hazleton.
In addition to the United States, Therma-Tek’s equipment is also shipped to Canada, Mexico, Indonesia and Malaysia, Seiwell said.
“Many of the parts are fabricated in Greater Hazleton and all of them are assembled at our West Hazleton plant. The employees we have found here are talented and hard working,” he said.
Therma-Tek’s name has been gaining attention in the industry. World-renowned chef Gordon Ramsey, who hosts several network television cooking series, used Therma-Tek’s equipment to modernize a Colorado restaurant on the show Kitchen Nightmares.
