Easy Ice Closes First Acquisition of 2025 in Portland

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jan. 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Last year saw record growth for Easy Ice, the nation's leading provider of managed ice machine rentals, and they're starting 2025 strong by continuing that trend. This year's first acquisition marks their entrance into the great Northwest—closing on the ice machine rental division of Rose's Equipment & Supply in Portland, Oregon.

Rose's Equipment & Supply has been in operation since 1979 and is one of the largest food equipment dealers in the Pacific Northwest—offering complete commercial kitchen design by selling and renting new and used equipment, restaurant supplies, and more. Operating in Oregon and Washington, this transaction will allow Easy Ice to establish a new branch as they increase density, improve their customer experience, and continue to expand throughout the region.

"I'm extremely honored that Tom Rose, founder of Rose's Equipment & Supply, has chosen Easy Ice to carry his legacy in ice machine rentals forward. This will be the first major expansion into the Pacific Northwest for the company, and we can't wait to see what our team can do," says Darren Boruff, Chief Acquisitions Officer. "We are very excited for the opportunity to win the business of so many unique and local establishments and look forward to increasing our presence."

As they bolster their presence in yet another key market, the experts at Easy Ice look forward to providing the level of service that customers of Rose's Equipment & Supply have come to expect over the years.
