In "The Office", Phyllis' husband, Bob Vance, runs what kind of company?

In "The Office," Phyllis' husband, Bob Vance, runs a refrigeration company.

Bob is repeatedly introduced as “Bob Vance, Vance Refrigeration,” a deliberately over-the-top running joke. He operates Vance Refrigeration from the same Scranton business park as Dunder Mifflin, making him one of the company’s neighboring tenants.

The gag becomes funnier because Bob introduces himself to several Dunder Mifflin employees individually, even when they are standing together. Ryan notices the repetition and asks what line of work Bob is in, prompting the same answer again. Bob is more than a one-joke character, however: he is supportive of Phyllis, friendly toward her coworkers, and offers to buy Dunder Mifflin’s warehouse when the Scranton branch faces closure.

A common mix-up is confusing Bob’s business with a general appliance or air-conditioning company. The show’s canonical wording is specifically “Vance Refrigeration,” so “refrigeration” is the fair quiz answer.
