Boston Showcase Company
About
Boston Showcase Company is a Newton-based foodservice design and supply firm that has outfitted Greater Boston restaurants and institutions since 1913. It handles kitchen design and layout for workflow and code compliance, commercial equipment, tabletop items such as dinnerware and glassware, front- and back-of-house supplies, seating and tables, and white-glove delivery and setup. Projects range from a coffee shop to a 300-seat restaurant, and the team works to learn each client’s menu concept first.
More than a century in, the company describes a people-first culture and has been named a Top Place to Work by The Boston Globe in 2023, 2024, and 2025. Its longest relationships include Harvard University, its first foodservice customer, served since 1946, and Davio’s, its first nationwide account. Recent projects include La Padrona’s Back Bay opening, Shy Bird’s Boston expansion, and a pizza restaurant on Cape Cod.
