In 2019, Empire Comfort Systems acquired Primo Ceramic Grills, a leading manufacturer of ceramic grills. The acquisition was the result of a longstanding relationship between Nick Bauer, President of Empire Comfort Systems, and George, the founder of Primo Ceramic Grills. Both companies share the same distributors and partners, making the partnership a natural fit.
Empire Comfort Systems, a fourth-generation family-owned business established in 1932, specializes in manufacturing gas and wood heating appliances and grills. They have previously acquired Broilmaster Premium Gas Grills. With the acquisition of Primo Ceramic Grills, Empire Comfort Systems aims to enhance the brand's reputation for quality by investing in product improvements and expanding accessory options.
