About Martinizing Cleaners

Martinizing is a scalable, profitable business that has been helping our franchisees give back to their community, create a lifestyle, increase their wealth, and build equity for over five generations. Martinizing is the most powerful brand in our industry. We are under new ownership and looking to grow aggressively, with franchisees who have the skillsets and experiences necessary to be successful.

Profit Centers: Five distinct profit centers allow the franchisee to service customers in today’s on-demand lifestyle many times referred to as Hub and Spoke.

  1. Retail/plant – The traditional dry cleaning model which includes a retail counter and dry cleaning/laundry processing plant. This is now an "Acquisition and Conversion to Martinizing."
  2. Satellite Locations – Convenience locations where the customer can drop off/pick up their clothing. Processing is not done at these locations, but instead sent to the plant. This is also can be a "Acquisition and Conversion" to the Martinizing brand.
  3. Delivery Only – Drivers go to the consumer’s home for dry cleaning and laundry pick-up and delivery on regularly scheduled days.
  4. Commercial Routes – Similar to Residential Routes, but at the consumer’s place of business. Lockers – Lockers are strategically placed throughout the market in residential and commercial locations.
  5. Customers can drop their laundry in a secure locker and create their digital code. When their laundry is done, they receive a text message indicating which locker they can find their clothes.

History

Martinizing is a recognized name in the dry cleaning industry with over 75 years of innovation & leadership experience. Our system was developed in 1949 when Henry Martin recognized that it was feasible for smaller, full service dry cleaning plants to provide quick service cost effectively. That began Martinizing, the pioneer of on-premise; quick dry cleaning service. Currently, Martinizing franchisees operate more than 350 stores in the United States and other countries around the world.
