Walco – Excellence in Stainless Steel Flatware and Buffet Accessories
Walco, an esteemed division of the Utica Cutlery Company, has been a significant contributor to the foodservice industry for over a century. Established in 1910 in Utica, New York, the company began its journey manufacturing pocket knives and later expanded into kitchen cutlery and stainless steel flatware. Walco's dedication to quality and innovation has solidified its reputation as a trusted provider of flatware and buffet accessories.

The 18/10 series, containing 18% chromium and 10% nickel, ensures enhanced durability and a lustrous finish, making it ideal for upscale dining establishments. The 18/0 series, with 18% chromium and no nickel content, provides a cost-effective yet quality option suitable for various dining settings.
