Antunes: The Restaurant Equipment Manufacturer
Main Auction Services, Inc., buys and sells the latest food service and restaurant equipment by the world’s leading manufacturers like Antunes. Antunes is an restaurant industry leader in custom solutions providers in countertop cooking equipment and water filtration systems for the global market. Headquartered in Carol Stream, Illinois, Antunes is driven by a commitment to offer innovative products, premium quality and personal service rooted in lasting partnerships—to ultimately deliver on its unifying promise: to drive success for every customer.

Antunes has been headquartered in the Chicago area since they were first created in 1955. Founder, August Antunes, started as a manufacturer’s representative and his passion for making his customers successful led him to manufacture his own products, like pressure switches and foodservice equipment. As their company grew, so did their needs. The original location quickly expanded into five separate buildings; and in 1999, they moved into a new facility in Carol Stream, Illinois, with enough space for all of our product divisions as well as future expansion.
