The Scotsman is a well-established manufacturer of commercial ice machines and refrigeration equipment, with a history dating back to 1921. Originally founded as Queen Stove Works in Albert Lea, Minnesota, the company initially produced camp stoves and later expanded into various heating and kitchen products. The Scotsman brand emerged in 1950 after the acquisition of the American Gas Machine Company, which had a history of manufacturing ice machines. Over the years, Scotsman has grown through several acquisitions, becoming the largest-selling ice machine brand worldwide. Its product line includes commercial ice machines, freezers, water coolers, and beverage dispensing equipment. The company serves a diverse range of customers in the foodservice, hospitality, healthcare, and retail industries, emphasizing American manufacturing and a strong presence in its hometown of Albert Lea, Minnesota.
