At Commercial Kitchen Stop, we’ve built more than a company—we’ve built a movement to redefine what it means to support the foodservice industry. Founded by lifelong friends Ryan Giffin and Scott Delaney, CKS began with a bold vision: to make buying foodservice equipment and supplies easy again with a healthy disregard for the impossible.
To strengthen this mission, Maria Albertorio, a respected entrepreneur and industry leader, joined the team. Her expertise and shared commitment to innovation helped lay the foundation for the exceptional service and solutions CKS provides today.
Now, we are a young, ambitious team united by one purpose: to empower those who serve others. We understand the unique challenges of the foodservice industry, and we’re here to provide solutions that help your business thrive.

Jeff Palleschi I own 21st Amendment Distillery in Vero Beach, FL. Last year I partnered with CKS. I purchased all of my bar & kitchen equipment from CKS. They took their time walking me through all of the equipment options available and made sure equipment selections matched my vision for the Distillery. As a new Restauranteur I was extremely impressed by the level of service throughout the entire process. In particular, David Douglas, my CKS Rep. took the time to visit my Distillery several times to perform site visits and was instrumental in helping me with the equipment layout & orientation. For such a high level of service and high-quality equipment their pricing is very fair. You will not be disappointed when you partner with CKS.
Alex Sky I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the outstanding service we received regarding the restaurant equipment. Your professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to quality made the entire process smooth and stress-free. We truly appreciate your efforts and will gladly recommend your services to others. Looking forward to working with you again in the future!
