Elliot B. Balaber graduated from Queens College, C.U.N.Y, in 1976 with a B.S. in Psychology, Cum Laude. His special emphasis was in consumer behavior, industrial psychology, statistics and economics. Immediately after graduation, Elliot started as a warehouse worker and sales trainee in New York for Halco, one of the worlds largest foodservice tabletop, smallwares and supply manufacturers. For the next eight years he traveled to and was sales manager for most of the territories from Eastern Canada (Ontario, Quebec, and New Brunswick Province) down through Virginia. In 1984 Elliot was promoted to Halco's National Vice President and relocated to Chicago, Il. He ran the office, warehouse and sales staff that was responsible for all states from Ohio through North + South Dakota and the Canadian Province of Saskatchewan + Manitoba. Elliot was also responsible for domestic + import purchasing, trade shows, overseeing all receivables, payables, as well as purchasing all operational materials. He also instructed and motivated his sales staff regarding sales technique, collection and pricing as well as developing promotional materials and price lists. 

Neiman "Buzz" Cohn has worked in the foodservice industry since 1967. He was employed for ten years with the Edward Don Company as a Regional Sales Manager in Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey. Neiman has also worked for two large food and smallwares distributors, Worcester Quality Food and Sky Brothers. His last position was with United Plastics Products, a plastic extruder manufacturer, as East Coast and Canadian Sales Manager. Neiman has a B.A. in Sociology from the University of Pittsburgh and an honorable discharge from the U.S. Army. His association with EBBCO began in October 1989.

Chris Dabbs lives outside of Raleigh, N.C. and has been in the foodservice industry his entire life.  He started with his dad selling Buffalo China in 11 western states and has also represented Hamilton Beach, Star Mfg., Intedge, Burden China, Spill Stop, U.S. Mat and Rubber, Sterling China, Bar Maid, and Jiffy Brush among others.  He also spent 2 years as V.P. of equipment and supplies with Gold Medal Grocers (later U.S. Food Service). In 1986, Chris became sales manager of Nordic Industries (custom refrigeration, distribution of supplies and equipment) until they went under in 1991.  He joined Electro Freeze as sales manager and left in 1998 to become sales manager for Autofry.  His last jobs were as sales manager of Taylor Freezers and he even served as E & S manager for Restaurant Depot on a one year contract. Chris has been specializing in tabletop, smallwares and supplies calling on the dealers, distributors and endusers in the Carolinas.  He has been marketing a few small expensive, upscale china and glassware lines and has been very successful penetrating the marketplace.  We feel that his knowledge, experience, and connections make him a valuable addition to EBBCO and our factories.
