As this year's Foodservice Equipment & Supplies magazine Dealer of the Year, there's been much to celebrate for David Ellingson and the entire Bargreen Ellingson team in 2025. David, a third generation owner and Bargreen's President, is smart, passionate and thoughtful. Each time we connect, his passion for LIFE is on full display and inevitably I come away having learned, both about David, and also about myself. David is someone whose curiosity and willingness to dive deep into what matters, often gives me (and many of us) permission to do the same.

After an impressive 13 year career in foodservice on the manufacturer side of the business, in January of 2019 Chelsea Rae Stuck stepped out of the familiar to pursue her passion, offering marketing consulting and brand-building to multiple channels in the world of hospitality through her firm Craeve & Company.
