Lakeside Manufacturing

Lakeside Manufacturing, established in 1946 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is a leading American manufacturer specializing in stainless steel and mobile equipment solutions for the foodservice, healthcare, and industrial sectors. Founded by brothers Robert and Richard Moon, the company began with the creation of a wooden barbecue cart and quickly innovated the first stainless steel utility cart—Model 311—which remains a flagship product today.

Over the decades, Lakeside has expanded its product offerings to include utility carts, meal delivery systems, medical supply carts, serving counters, and custom-engineered solutions. Their equipment is designed for durability, sanitation, and ergonomic efficiency, serving diverse markets such as hospitals, schools, senior living facilities, laboratories, and commercial kitchens.

A hallmark of Lakeside's approach is its commitment to customization and rapid turnaround. With over 10,000 standard configurations and the ability to modify or custom-build products without minimum order requirements, the company ensures that clients receive tailored solutions promptly.
