Zepole Supply Co. Strengthens Minnesota Presence With New St. Cloud Location

Zepole Supply Co., a FEDA distributor member based in the Chicago suburbs, is opening a new retail store and design center in St. Cloud, Minnesota.

Located at 725 Crescent St. NE and opening on July 21, the new store gives restaurants, grocery stores, hospitality groups, architects, designers, general contractors, and foodservice professionals a dedicated local resource for equipment and supplies. The location will also offer design support, project coordination, local delivery, and access to the company’s Z-Chem Solutions warewash service program.

Zepole has been supporting foodservice design-build projects throughout the Minnesota market, but the new retail store and design center will provide a physical showroom where customers can see equipment, purchase supplies, and work directly with an experienced local team.

“Our Minnesota team has been actively supporting foodservice projects in this market, and this new location allows us to bring even more value to operators and project partners,” President Gary Thiakos said. “Whether someone needs everyday supplies, equipment for their operation, warewash support, or guidance for a full kitchen buildout, this location was created to make the process easier, faster, and more reliable.”

To celebrate the opening, Zepole Supply Co. will host a Grand Opening Open House from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. July 21, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 11 a.m. Guests can enjoy storewide sales of up to 10% off, excluding equipment and furniture, along with raffles and prizes including an iPad, baskets, and gift cards. Food and refreshments will include roasted Greek lamb, handmade Greek souvlaki, and more.
