SimpliciTea, represented by Zink Foodservice.
Fresh-brewed tea sells, but somebody has to brew it, chill it, and scrub the urn. SimpliciTea, from Appliance Innovation, automates all three — it brews fresh, holds cold, and cleans itself — with made-to-order flavor and sweetness options to widen the menu. Taste it against your current program in one of our culinary centers.
Zink Foodservice is the equipment representative for SimpliciTea in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Western Pennsylvania and West Virginia. One call reaches spec support, samples, local territory managers, and culinary centers where you can see it in person.

Where we represent SimpliciTea
SimpliciTea, answered.
Does Zink Foodservice represent SimpliciTea in the Great Lakes?
Yes. Zink Foodservice is the equipment representative for SimpliciTea in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Western Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Your local territory manager is named on this page, or call 800.492.7400.
Where can I see SimpliciTea in person?
At any of our eight culinary centers. They hold key items rather than every model — and we ship between centers — so tell us what you want to see and we will have it at the center nearest you. If it cooks, bring your menu and a chef will run it with you. There is no charge.
Can I buy SimpliciTea directly from Zink Foodservice?
No, and that is by design. Operators buy through a dealer or distributor. Zink does the spec work, the samples and the test-kitchen time, and the purchase flows through the dealer you already use — which is why our involvement costs you nothing.
Who do I call when SimpliciTea equipment needs service or warranty work?
Warranty work runs through SimpliciTea's authorized service network. Start with Zink's service page and we will route you to the right agent for your area, usually the same day, or call 800.492.7400.
