Chicago location to showcase model when it opens in spring<\/h2>\n

Commercial laundry equipment manufacturer\u00a0Speed Queen<\/a>\u00a0is constructing a Chicago flagship store supporting its\u00a0Laundromat franchise model<\/a>, the Alliance Laundry Systems brand reports.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The store located at 6808 W. Grand Ave, on Chicago\u2019s Northwest Side will open in the spring and offer 12,250 square feet of space, featuring washers with capacities ranging from a single load to 100 pounds and tumble dryers up to 45 pounds.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile we have developed and perfected the Speed Queen Laundromat franchise over the last few years, it\u2019s truly the result of our more than a century of industry leadership,\u201d says Dan Bowe, general manager of North America franchising and retail operations for Speed Queen Laundromats.<\/p>\n

As a Midwest company, it felt right to open the largest store in the Chicago area, he adds.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis store certainly showcases to new investors the exceptional quality and aesthetics that are part of this model. It will change perceptions of what people think a Laundromat looks like.\u201d<\/p>\n

Touchscreen controls, app-based payment and rewards programs for frequent customers are among the store\u2019s cutting-edge technology. Fast, efficient washer-extractors and tumble dryers offer customers exceptional flexibility to tailor cycles, while getting them in and out in an hour, all in a clean, well-lit environment with vibrant colors, according to Bowe.<\/p>\n

Leveraging the brand\u2019s 110-plus years of industry experience and branding as well as off-site management technology, Speed Queen Laundromat franchises enable investors to tap\u00a0into the average return on investment of 30% that vended laundries offer, the brand says.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the leader in commercial laundry, nobody has more expertise to deliver a truly turn-key solution,\u201d Bowe says. \u201cWe are excited to be able to offer this opportunity to investors who want to take advantage of the revenue potential of Laundromats but with a more hands-off approach.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>
