Nizer Corporation was a maker of electrically cooled ice-cream cabinets and other types of commercial refrigerators, based in Detroit Michigan. During its active years, it was the market leader in this field. [1] [2]

The company was purchased by Kelvinator in 1926 in a tri-party merger (the third party being Grand Rapids Refrigerator Company) that was valued at $20,000,000. [3] [4]
