Core Catering had a very successful operation for many years until COVID-19 struck. When Duke University sent the students home, Core lost almost all of their business. The owners of Core Catering have decided to retire, rather than fight to reopen. You will find this equipment to be in excellent condition, and very clean. They ran a first class operation and prided themselves in the cleanliness of their equipment. ALL ITEMS HAVE BEEN MOVED TO THE FOOD COURT AT NORTHGATE MALL FOR THIS AUCTION.
