Star Manufacturing, founded in 1921 in St. Louis, MO, is a leading manufacturer of heavy-duty commercial cooking equipment for restaurants worldwide. With a diverse range of products, including countertop cooking equipment such as charbroilers, griddles, hot plates, fryers, and waffle bakers, as well as toasters, panini sandwich grills, and hot dog equipment, Star has established itself as one of the largest manufacturers in the industry.

Over the years, Star Manufacturing has expanded its product line through strategic acquisitions, including Toastswell, adding two-sided grills, drawer warmers, popup toasters, and waffle bakers, and the Holman brand, which brought conveyor ovens and toasters into the mix. In 2006, Star acquired the Lang brand, incorporating convection ovens, ranges, and a robust Marine equipment line. In 2007, the Star Group joined the Middleby Corporation, becoming part of the world's largest family of food equipment manufacturers.
