1,000’s converge in the Manitowoc booth to “Talk With Manitowoc”

Whatever your reason, you were one of thousands that flocked to the Manitowoc booth to get a chance to talk with the Manitowoc team.  With a booth stretching over 10,000 square feet Manitowoc introduced almost 30 new products representing all of the foodservice categories that we manufacture equipment for.
