“I have worked directly with the Columbia Food Machinery team for over twenty years. I regard them as one of the premier suppliers of quality equipment and service to the food processing industry. One of the qualities that I appreciate about their team is that they are diligent about communicating updates and upgrades as they relate to the equipment and services they provide. Equipment that was purchased many years ago continues to be supported and enhanced through their commitment to working with their manufacturing partners to bring improvements.
Communication with the team at Columbia Food Machinery is always courteous and professional as well as timely. It is truly a pleasure to work with a trade partner who is able to supply the newest and most innovative products while at the same time servicing what they have sold in the past.”

“Columbia Food Machinery helped Bornstein Seafood successfully install an infeed shaker in 2013. They came on-site and looked over how we were feeding the freezer and designed a vibratory shaker unit to better feed the tunnel. Their representative worked with us and communicated throughout the design of the shaker unit with a very tight schedule. They met our budget and time frame on delivery with no issues. The help and communication was the best I have dealt with so far. Their representative arrived the day after we installed the unit and walked us through step by step how it functioned. Great people to work with.
In 2015 I went to Columbia Food Machinery with a need for another infeed shaker on another very tight time frame for delivery; I was amazed how much detailed information and help I received on the project.
Bornstein Seafood will continue to do business with this group in the future and strongly recommends them in the seafood market. I have not hesitated to recommend them to people that ask about our equipment and where we got it.”

“My first year at Blue Mt. Packing I found myself in uncharted waters. Blue Mt. Packing had just purchased another new sorting machine which I had never before seen operate. Before production started, the representative from Columbia Food Machinery arrived and was very helpful in explaining the machine’s operations. That first season was a huge learning process for me in the operation of the sorter. Their sales representative was always there with the answer or arranged for someone to assist. The second season was equally as developing for me in the area of learning more of the settings for the sorters with regular assistance from the Columbia Food Machinery Team. My representative, his office staff, and technicians are one of the finest professional examples a business can put in the field. I could write volumes of examples covering the past two years of the commitment, dedication, follow-up, follow through, and friendship from them. I am very fortunate to have had this organization at my back and am looking forward to future years with them.”

“The service I receive from Columbia Food Machinery is phenomenal. Their sales representative has a vast range of knowledge and is always accommodating to our needs. They represent quality and reliability. I wish every one of my vendors was as accommodating as everyone at Columbia Food Machinery. They are by far the best company that I am associated with and I truly mean that! I am shocked sometimes as to the great lengths the office staff and sales representative go in order to assist me with different issues. Thanks for all that you have done and for all that you do!”

“”I have worked with Columbia Food Machinery for over 12 years and only wish that all other vendors were as good to work with as they are. From concept to startup, the same team is with you all the way through and continues to provide top shelf support long after the equipment has been successfully commissioned. Everyone at this company is committed to being a partner to their customers and they are the epitome of customer service. I thoroughly trust and enjoy working with them and always look forward to our next opportunity together.”
