Over 115 linen, uniform and facility services industry operators representing 55 companies from the U.S. and Canada gathered in Fort Worth, TX, for two days of networking, education and fun. The annual conference, dubbed “AlliantCon,” is a forum for operators to discuss new technologies, exchange ideas and strategies and learn other new ways that operators can grow and manage their businesses.
Following rising COVID-19 cases in China, the organizers of Texcare Asia & China Laundry Expo (TXCA & CLE) have decided to defer the fair to 2023 in Shanghai. The trade show was previously scheduled to be held this Nov. 17–19 in Ningbo, according to a news release.
With the 2022 edition in the rearview mirror, the Clean Show will return to an odd-year, two-year cycle, starting in 2025. This move comes in response to the unprecedented postponements and rescheduling of events and trade fairs across the industry due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
TRSA continued its international theme on the second day of The Clean Show in Atlanta with a lunchtime panel of CEOs from worldwide leaders in the linen, uniform and facility services industry.
A morning panel presentation on the second day of The TRSA Experience at The Clean Show featured global association leaders highlighting initiatives impacting the linen, uniform and facility services industry, and how those initiatives can benefit operators in the U.S. market.
As outsourced laundries continue to face difficulties recruiting maintenance and engineering personnel, these operators face the same fundamental proposition they ask their customers to consider about doing their own linen or uniforms: go outside your organization for the expertise you need. TRSA conversations with operators and exhibitors at the Clean Show verified the increasing popularity of this practice.
TRSA announced at the Clean Show it will offer to the public the TRSA Market Recovery & Research Report. The research, collected in the fall of 2021, utilized focus groups and an online survey to collect data from 1,000 consumers across the United States with recent experience with hotel, restaurant and healthcare businesses and industrial uniforms. The business-to-business (B2B) quantitative online survey reached 200 decision makers in these four key target groups.
Linen, uniform and facility services managers and executives at a TRSA luncheon presentation July 30 grasped how hygiene certification concepts refined for healthcare laundry can be applied to service other industries. These participants at this Clean Show session learned that although customers in other businesses may not require such certification as hospitals do, earning the TRSA Hygienically Clean designations for other industries sends a powerful message of credibility to these markets.
