Dean was incorporated into the Frymaster sales & marketing organization in 1995. Frymaster Corporation is a market leader in commercial fryers and the choice of the world’s largest foodservice chains.

It began in 1935 when Company founder, P.F. Ratcliff, built the very first Frymaster fryer around the advanced principles of the open frypot and the master jet burner. Since then, Frymaster strives to lead the industry in product innovation with items such as the highly efficient infrared burner and fully controlled, programable cooking.

Industry first such as computer controlled frying, built-in filtration of shortening, high efficiency fryer systems, and space-saving under-fryer automatic filtration are further examples of innovation at work for the benefit of the foodservice industry.
