LEE BAGLEY

LEE BAGLEY

President
Lee has spent his entire career in the food service industry. His knowledge, passion, and expertise is built upon a solid and diverse range of experience and careers within the business.

While attending the University of Utah, he worked for his father’s restaurant equipment dealership, installing food service equipment and designing kitchens. Lee then joined a local food equipment manufacturers’ rep agency as a Sales Agent where he worked for five years before becoming a Sales Manager for SYSCO Food Service in the non-foods division.

In 1996, Lee founded Intermountain Food Equipment. Lee says, “food service is in my blood–nothing brings me greater professional satisfaction than helping the many facets of this industry achieve their goals for success.” Another aspect of the business Lee enjoys is mentoring culinary-minded high school students in the Pro Start program.

Lee relaxes by cooking, gardening, and spending time with his wife, daughter, and his two sports-crazed sons. As a family they enjoy skiing and hiking in the beautiful canyons of the Wasatch mountains.
