FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Server Products Exploring Plans for Future Facility in Southeastern Wisconsin
RICHFIELD, Wis., Sept. 23, 2025 – Server Products, a leading manufacturer of food and beverage equipment trusted by many of the largest restaurant chains worldwide, announced plans to explore the development of a new facility in West Bend, Wis. Server is encouraged by the possibilities this opportunity could bring.
On September 22, the City of West Bend Common Council approved the signing of the purchase and sales agreement for Server to explore the development of a new facility.
The proposed facility, to be located within the West Bend Corporate Center, would span approximately 32.8 acres and would serve as a high-tech manufacturing, office and distribution space. The project has the potential to bring forward-looking, technology-driven jobs that support the local communities where Server’s employees live, work and thrive.
Among the products slated to be manufactured and distributed at the prospective new facility is Server’s recently launched IxD™ Series, a set of condiment, sauce and syrup dispensers and coaters powered by SmartWares® Technology. This innovation embodies Server’s Core Four℠ platform – Speed of Service, Efficiency, Consistency, and Simplicity – and represents a new level of operational excellence and style for foodservice operators.
“This is an exciting step as we look to the future of our family business,” said Server Products CEO and Chairwoman Kris Falkner. “We are proud of our deep roots in Southeast Wisconsin, and especially Washington County where the strength of the community has been integral to our growth and success. As we expand, we remain committed to those ties, while building new opportunities for the future.”
“The City of West Bend is proud to be considered as the home for Server Products’ future facility,” said West Bend City Administrator Jesse Thyes. “This project has the potential to bring quality jobs to West Bend and further strengthen our local business and manufacturing community. While still in the exploratory phase, we are encouraged by the possibilities ahead.”
