FEM and Cambro celebrate 20 years of partnership as Cambro marks 75 years of innovation

Marking 20 years of collaboration and 75 years of Cambro excellence

This year marks two major milestones for Foodservice Equipment Marketing (FEM) and long-standing manufacturing partner Cambro Manufacturing: 20 years of successful partnership in the UK market, alongside Cambro’s 75th anniversary as one of the world’s most trusted foodservice brands.

The celebrations come during a period of continued growth and investment for Foodservice Equipment Marketing, following the addition of a new 33,000 sq. ft warehouse facility.  This expansion increases FEM’s total warehousing footprint to approximately 80,000 sq. ft across three sites, strengthening stock availability, fulfilment speed and service levels for dealers and operators across the UK.

For over two decades, FEM has worked closely with Cambro to deliver durable, practical solutions that enhance food safety, efficiency and organisation in professional kitchens. From storage and preparation to transport and shelving, Cambro systems have become a trusted standard across UK foodservice operations.

Founded in 1951, Cambro began with the Camtray and has since evolved into a global leader serving hospitality, healthcare, education and catering sectors.  Over 75 years, the brand has pioneered widely adopted solutions including CamSquares, Camshelving and insulated transport systems, all designed to solve real operational challenges and improve kitchen efficiency.

Earlier this year, FEM team members attended the Cambro 2026 International Sales Meeting in Thailand, joining global partners for a programme of presentations, networking and an awards dinner recognising international success.  Hosted by Argyle Campbell, Tucker Campbell and Jim Skelly, the event reinforced Cambro’s commitment to collaboration and long-term partner relationships.

As Cambro celebrates 75 years, it continues to lead on innovation, including the transition to BPA-free food storage solutions.  The shift reflects a continued commitment to food safety and performance, with products such as SafeTrak GN pans supporting HACCP compliance through improved labelling and organisation.

Recent developments like FreshPro CamSquares and FreshPro CamRounds further demonstrate Cambro’s ongoing product evolution, while maintaining its founding principles: durability, practicality and operator-focused design.

Together, FEM and Cambro continue to support the foodservice industry with reliable systems that improve workflow, safety and efficiency.  With strong investment in infrastructure and ongoing product innovation, both companies are well positioned to support operators into the future.

Mark Hogan, Commercial Director at FEM, commented, “FEM is proud to be celebrating over two decades of partnership with Cambro.  In that time, we have built a strong and trusted relationship focused on supporting operators with high-quality, reliable solutions that genuinely make a difference in professional kitchens. As both organisations continue to invest and evolve, we look forward to building on this success in the years ahead.”

The anniversary was also marked at FEM’s headquarters in East Kilbride on Wednesday 21 October, when Jeremy Crown, National Account Manager UK at Cambro Manufacturing, surprised the team with a cake shaped like a FreshPro CamSquare. The visit coincided with FEM’s quarterly sales meeting, meaning the external sales team were also at the Scottish headquarters to join in the celebrations. The thoughtful gesture provided a fitting way to recognise 20 years of partnership between the two companies.
