Gram Equipment’s story begins in the early 1900s, when Hans Gram opened a small smithy in the Danish countryside. What started as a local workshop soon grew into a recognized industrial success. By 1930, as ice cream made its debut in Denmark, Gram delivered the country’s very first automatic ice cream manufacturing machine. This moment marked the beginning of our long-standing legacy in the ice cream industry.
