Our legacy of service is
70 YEARS STRONG.
“Legacy is not leaving something for people.
It’s leaving something in people.​"​ - Peter Strople
Built on relationships. Driven by expertise. Trusted for generations.
We are a company with a rich history of 70 years and are continuously searching for and reinventing new ways to better satisfy our customers. The Bauer name has provided three generations with the same core values. Our commitment has earned us a reputation of trust and leadership in the foodservice industry.
In 2018, Brian Bauer of Professional Reps and Bruce Bauer of Bauer Marketing Group announced the joining of forces. Professional Reps acquired Bauer Marketing, bringing two strong teams together under the Professional Reps name. The heartbeat of our organization continues to be our customers and creating lasting partnerships.
We’re excited to continue building on this legacy while honoring the foundation that both companies have established over the past seven decades.
Professional Reps is not the typical rep firm.
Our commitment goes above and beyond the industry “norm.” We pride ourselves on quick quote turnaround time, having an in-house CAD designer, hosting live demos in our test kitchens, and — most importantly — providing after-sales support.
The job is not done when the dotted line is signed. We go on location to support the installation process and train kitchen crew members to ensure equipment is used properly and maintained correctly. It is important to us that the equipment we represent performs as intended and that end users feel confident using it.
An example of how we can help:
We help restaurants find the right professional equipment that satisfies their specific needs — from floor troughs, to cooking ranges, to the seating customers use every day.
As equipment continues to advance and innovation moves our industry forward, we stay current through ongoing training and education. This allows us to remain experts in the field and continue providing quality products and thorough information to end users, ensuring a positive experience.
We welcome your business, thank you for your continued trust, and look forward to providing you with a professional experience.
