Brad Pierce, now President and CEO of REW, led the company into developing the foodservice equipment industry''s first website. REW has continued as a leader and innovator in the online industry ever since its initial launch.

REW''s website begins to grew into a thriving network of 220+ websites featuring all of the top brands in the industry. Each domain name ended in the word "World", such as www.RefrigeratorWorld.com and www.BlenderWorld.com.

REW launches the first mobile app in the restaurant equipment industry. This was developed for the Palm VII platform. A full mobile version of the website capable of being displayed on mobile browsers and WAP phones was also launched simultaneously.
