Our History
The Sterno Group is renowned as an innovator and category leader to the global foodservice industry. The consistent, excellent performance of our products has earned us many awards and recognition from some of the world’s top executive chefs.
Since 1893, the Sterno® Brand has been the most respected name in portable cooking fuel. Originally known as S.Sternau & Co., the company became a household name in 1917. Sterno promoted their portable stove as an essential gift for soldiers going to fight in the trenches of Europe. Sterno stoves heated water and rations, sterilized surgical instruments, and provided light and warmth to bunkers and foxholes. Sterno products have been alongside America’s fighting men and women in every military engagement since.
At The Sterno Group™, our passion has always been developing a quality product — one that is safe, reliable, and innovative. Sterno® Brand products always deliver, giving you the peace of mind to focus on what really matters, the food you serve.
