John Boos & Co. continues to develop new product offerings that can be seen regionally when visiting one of the new sports stadiums, (Colts, Cowboys, Cardinals, Jets, Giants) where the John Boos & Co. logo identifies stainless steel sinks, worktables, and the like. Daily on the Food Network (Chopped, Grill It with Bobby Flay, Iron Chef America, Barefoot Contessa) or other shows, (Martha Stewart, The Talk, Masterchef) the Boos Block® brand can be seen on the cutting boards.
