Owner of Former Detroit Distributor Joins Great Lakes Hotel Supply

The former owner of People’s Restaurant Equipment has joined Great Lakes Hotel Supply as an account executive.

Dante Corsi has more than 25 years of experience in the foodservice equipment and supplies industry. More than two decades of that time have been spent helping operators in metropolitan Detroit through his work with, and eventual ownership of, People’s Restaurant Equipment. The 107-year-old business closed earlier this year, but Great Lakes said Corsi will bring the service, expertise, and reliability the business was known for to his new role.

“With a background that spans purchasing, sales, operations, and delivery, Dante understands every corner of the foodservice industry,” the company said. “That practical insight and customer-first mindset make him a strong addition to our team.”
