The Middleby Corporation announced that its Food Processing business will operate under the name Midera Food Processing Inc. (Midera). The launch reflects the continued advancement of Middleby?s Food Processing platform into a more focused, technology-driven organization delivering total line solutions. With a foundation built over decades and a portfolio of more than 30 global brands, Midera is positioned to accelerate innovation and serve customers with greater clarity and speed.

The company?s new brand identity reinforces Midera?s launch as a pure play food processing company. The Midera name?s first syllable evokes the company?s heritage as part of Middleby as it enters a new era as a company entirely devoted to food processing. The Midera emblem draws from triangular elements of Middleby?s original visual identity, refined to convey precision and forward momentum.

The separation of Midera into a standalone public company is expected to be completed on July 6, 2026, subject to customary conditions, including the effectiveness of Midera?s Form 10 registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (?SEC?), through a distribution of Midera common stock to Middleby stockholders.
