about us
founders
Mark Bielstein and Mike French, who have lived and breathed the pizza game for close to 40 years, are the brains behind EDGE ovens. They honed their skills by owning and running pizza shops for nearly 15 years and have combined their knowledge of baking pizzas, rebuilding ovens, and manufacturing to create the market-leading EDGE conveyor ovens.
The EDGE range represents their collective experience and is a reflection of what they love and dislike about ovens they have used and refurbished, refined to what we now know as the EDGE oven range.
history
Mike and Mark founded MF&B Restaurant Systems, Inc, in 1997. In 2008, the first EDGE oven was manufactured and sold, after reconditioning rival manufacturers ovens for over a decade, marking the beginning of the company's success. Since then, EDGE has sold over 10,000 ovens in the US alone, experiencing tremendous and sustained growth.
We have established over 100 international distributors, each serving as a dedicated resource for all your needs, from menu creation to post-sale support. Our distributors are your single point of contact for everything you need.

our goal
We at EDGE have one defining rule by which all other design and build decisions are judged – does it help our ovens bake the best product? We decided that no matter what, this is a non-negotiable design principle which leads all other decisions.
Other manufacturers focus on the speed of the oven at all costs – compromising bake quality. Some want to be the cheapest on the market – value engineering their ovens and making them highly unreliable. Some insist on complicated low energy systems adding unnecessarily expensive and unreliable technology and others will paint them so it looks good in the kitchen. At EDGE, we are most concerned about what comes out the ends of the oven and making sure it does consistently and problem free.
Great baking ovens are what makes extremely happy customers and happy customers order again and again. We at EDGE have invested the time and energy into developing and building the world’s best conveyor oven, with marketing leading energy efficiency, unrivalled reliability, near silent operation and most importantly consistent and beautifully baked pizzas!

We work closely with our customers, of all sizes, to enhance their commercial cooking processes and explore new menu ideas.
our history
Located in Pennsylvania, USA, EDGE Ovens are manufactured by MF&B Restaurant Systems, Inc. Founded in 1997, we began by remanufacturing Middleby, Lincoln and Blodgett conveyor ovens. The experience gained from reconditioning multiple manufacturers’ ovens lead us to the design and build of the first EDGE conveyor oven in 2008, and we haven’t looked back since. EDGE has sold over 10,000 ovens in the US alone, experiencing tremendous and sustained growth since our first EDGE oven sale.
The founders of MF&B Restaurant Systems, Mark Bielstein and Mike French, have a unique understanding of the conveyor oven and pizza industry. They started as pizza takeaway operators, owning and running a chain of pizza restaurants that utilized various conveyor ovens. The experience gained while running pizza shops meant that they had all the tools, knowledge and understanding required to build a better and more user-friendly oven for both operators and engineers alike.
