OUR STORY

When William and Argyle Campbell first opened the doors at Cambro Manufacturing in 1951, their goal was to make a hospital meal tray of the highest quality possible. Named the Camtray®, it demonstrated that they were as committed to excellence in the food service industry as they were to the quality of their own products. As 2018 marks the company’s 67th year of leadership in quality, innovation and customer service, today Cambro serves the world with the industry’s most complete selection of products for widely diverse segments of the food service business.

Since 1951, the company has experienced many changes including a greatly expanded product line, new methods of manufacturing and distribution, and an increased emphasis on topics like environmental responsibility. From a single factory in California, Cambro has grown to become an international presence with production facilities and sales offices in the United States, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

At the heart of our business philosophy is our willingness to listen, so in a very real way we owe all our success to you, our customer. Our longevity in a very competitive field for over 67 years certainly proves the value of that philosophy, and we are proud to have earned the loyalty of customers of all sizes and in all segments of the industry. From hotels to healthcare to caterers, from restaurant chains to educational facilities, especially in the last 30 years from retail chains to B2B and private labels products we understand and we design and create our products with the end user foremost in mind.

As Argyle Campbell, Owner, always says "Cambro is about the people"
