Sam Tell is one of the largest restaurant and foodservice equipment and supplies dealerships in the nation.

Our Story Our story begins in 1956 when Sam Tell and his son, Neil, founded the Sam Tell Companies. They started with two men, one location on Bleecker Street and a goal of providing their customers with quality foodservice solutions. The market was competitive and getting started was a challenge. But the father and son team worked hard and believed that if they stuck to their values of dependability, integrity

and honesty, their company would be a success. “They worked hard. And their business grew.” And they were right! By the 1970s the two-man opera- tion was growing. They were adding team members and buying more trucks. By the 1980s, Sam Tell’s grandson,

Marc, joined the team, as well as Dan Saltzman. Today, Marc Tell and Dan Saltzman run the compa- ny and lead a team 180 members strong with a 75,000 square foot warehouse in Farmingdale and a design showroom in Manhattan, where we’re among the largest restaurant and foodservice equipment and sup- plies dealerships in the nation. Along the way, we’ve completed projects across the street, across the United States and even across the ocean! From small, family-owned restaurants to tenants of the tallest buildings in New York City, The Sam Tell Companies continue to provide each of our clients with the same unparalleled service that has distin- guished us for more than 60 years.

AT&T Center – San Antonio, TX “Arthur Fisher was the first person I met from The Sam Tell Com- panies and after our initial meeting I knew we had selected the right vendor to complete the work. His organizational and leader- ship skills were showcased each day onsite.” – Michael W. Schwan, Senior Director, CAA ICON Stony Brook University “We’ve used Sam Tell for multiple projects at Stony Brook Univer- sity, but they played a major role in the completion of the campus’s

new East Side Dining Hall. They had everything we needed, handled all of the installation and commis- sioning and did a huge amount of custom steel work throughout the entire facility that came out great.” – Jeff M., Director of Equipment, Stony Brook University
