Zeiset Equipment LLC

Zeiset Equipment LLC was founded in 1988 by Marvin Zeiset. This beginning was just a continuation of a family legacy. Marvin was born into a family that was progressive innovators in the poultry industry dating back to the late 1800’s. His great-grandfather was the first person in Juniata County, Pennsylvania, to hatch eggs with a homemade incubator. Marvin’s grandfather saw a need for an improved poultry nest, and in 1952 he made and patented a colony style nest, which was marketed under the name The Favorite Nest. Favorite Manufacturing Company continued to expand their line of products, first to a roll away style nest, then to poultry cage systems. By the late 1970’s, Favorite Mfg. Co. was a major supplier of poultry equipment nationwide as well as internationally.
