Loubat Equipment Company, Inc. began serving restaurants in New Orleans over 135 years ago as Loubat Glassware & Cork Co. For a brief period during the 1980s, Loubat was united with L. Frank & Co., distributor of the American Beauty line of poultry, eggs and dairy products. In 1985, the two companies parted ways after realizing that selling supplies and selling food were two different entities. Since that time, Loubat Equipment has grown to be New Orleans’ premier equipment, smallwares, and design company. With the use of the latest in AutoCAD technology, Loubat has provided design work for many of the world-renowned dining facilities in New Orleans and foodservice establishments around the world.
