Merchandise Mart in downtown Chicago, welcomes The Galley, the leader in the production of quality kitchen stations, to its Design Resource Center (suite 163). The Galley is the originator of the kitchen Workstation. Thoughtfully designed, carefully engineered and manufactured in the USA, The Galley represents a whole new category of kitchen appliance.

These super functional, stylish and award-winning Workstations are reinventing the way people think about, design and use their kitchens.
