Nisbets Catering Equipment

Nisbets is a prominent British distributor and manufacturer of professional catering equipment, serving the hospitality and food service industries globally. The brand originated in Bristol, England, where it was established as a mail-order business for catering supplies before expanding into retail and manufacturing. Over the decades, it has grown to become the largest catering equipment supplier in the United Kingdom.

While the company is headquartered in the UK, its products are manufactured across multiple countries, including the UK, China, and various European nations, to support its diverse global supply chain. In a major industry shift, the majority ownership of Nisbets was acquired by the Bunzl group in 2024, integrating the brand into a global distribution powerhouse.

Today, Nisbets operates as a key brand under the Bunzl umbrella, continuing to offer a wide range of kitchenware, machinery, and furniture for commercial kitchens while benefiting from the logistical reach of its parent company.
