MM Reps, one of the Southeast’s most established manufacturer representative firms for commercial foodservice equipment, today announced its expansion into Mississippi, Louisiana, and Arkansas. The move extends the company’s territory coverage to nine states across the Southeast United States. Founded in 1976 and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, MM Reps has built a reputation for high-energy representation backed by culinary expertise and an industry-leading network of test kitchens. The expansion into the Gulf States represents the company’s largest territorial growth in over a decade. ”We have been watching the Gulf States market closely for several years,” said Jerry Hennebaul, Principal and Owner of MM Reps. “The demand for quality foodservice equipment representation in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Arkansas is significant, and we believe our culinary-driven approach will resonate strongly with operators and dealers in these markets.” The Gulf States territory will be supported by MM Reps’ existing infrastructure, including its Atlanta headquarters test kitchen and a dedicated team of sales professionals. The company plans to establish a regional test kitchen in the Gulf States within the next 18 months. MM Reps currently represents over 35 leading foodservice equipment manufacturers, including Alto-Shaam, Electrolux, Hoshizaki, and Groen. The company operates four test kitchens across the Southeast, with three additional facilities planned.
