Buying for a restaurant takes forever.

Quotes come back days later. The price depends on who you ask. The right spec lives in someone's head. Operators get a better buying experience for their pet food than for the equipment their business runs on. We're fixing that.

Backhouse played an essential role in getting Lazy Sister open! Using their equipment sourcing technology seemed like a no brainer and it definitely was.

Who we are

Built by insiders from every side of this business.

Our family has been in the restaurant industry since the 1950s. Backhouse was founded out of frustration with equipment purchasing plagued by wrong orders and poor service. Buying equipment and supplies has always meant emailed quotes, long waits, and guesswork. Backhouse makes it simple: our AI helps you find the right products and flags every consideration, and we fulfill every order without the legacy overhead of traditional distributors.

Our mission is to create the best buying experience in foodservice through the most customer-obsessed platform.
