Nieco
Nieco Corporation was founded in 1905 in San Francisco, California, as "Golden Rule Metal Products,” a sheet metal company. It was purchased by “Power Refrigeration” in 1967 and renamed “National Industrial Equipment Co,” which became "Nieco Corporation". Nieco’s first automatic broiler was prototyped and designed in 1969. That same year, the first Nieco broiler was installed in Disneyland’s “Tomorrowland Terrace”. Carl’s Jr. adopted their first Nieco broiler in 1970. Burger King installed their first unit in Sacramento, California in 1974.
After building and developing this new broiling technology, Nieco moved to Windsor, California. The company is currently operating on 5 acres, with 60,000 square feet of manufacturing and 15,000 square feet of office space. Nieco’s trademarked term, BroilVection™, was introduced to the market in 2009, along with their revolutionary JF series line-up. A combination of broiling and convection, BroilVection includes a burner system that recycles energy to improve broiler performance, adds flexibility, and saves a large amount of energy. Every JF series model includes the BroilVection technology to provide you with the top of the line broiling experience.
Since the production of their automatic broiler began back in 1969, Nieco has manufactured and sold over 60,000 units worldwide, which are currently installed in some of the world’s largest fast food chains, as well as in sports arenas, amusement parks and independent restaurants all over the globe.
