Escali ownership and Honey-Can-Do announce acquisition of the Asian kitchenware brand Joyce Chen and Old Stone Oven.
Burnsville, MN - March 1, 2023
Today, the owners of Escali announced that they have successfully acquired Joyce Chen and Old Stone Oven from Honey-Can-Do, delivering customers an exceptional level of service, and offering them an iconic cookware collection
that continues its namesake’s mission to make authentic Chinese cuisine attainable for all.
Joyce Chen, a beloved tv personality and author, was instrumental in popularizing Chinese food in America, designing and patenting a flat-bottom wok with a handle which she called the Peking Wok, and sold it, along with high-quality Chinese
cooking utensils, to home cooks in the United States. Today, the product line includes a variety of high-quality woks, bamboo steamer baskets, kitchen sheers, and bamboo cutting boards; kitchenware that seemlessly blend authentic with
accessible.
“We have great faith in the new owners and the potential for growth and success for the Joyce Chen brand. We wish them all the best and look forward to seeing the brands flourish,” said Steve Greenspon, CEO of Honey-Can-Do.
“We are thrilled to bring the Joyce Chen line into the fold,” added Kelly Walsh, Vice President at Escali. “We aim to expand on the great work of Honey-Can-Do, building on the legacy of Joyce Chen and offering high-quality, authentic, and
accessible Asian kitchenware to home cooks everywhere.”
The acquisition of Joyce Chen and Old Stone Oven is an important step in the owner’s long-term strategy of becoming the industry leader in providing innovative, customer-focused solutions. “This acquisition will not only expand our consumer customer base, but will also provide us with a greater range of products and services to offer retailers. Retailers will have the luxury of purchasing all four brands in one transaction, with the same level of customer service that they have come to expect from Escali and The London Sip,” stated Walsh.
The Joyce Chen and Old Stone brands will be showcased alongside Escali and The London Sip for the first time at the Inspired Home Show in Chicago, Booth S408, on March 4-7th, 2023.
