AmeriPride Services Inc., Minnetonka, MN, recently announced the acquisition of Model Laundry in Thief River Falls, MN. On Sept. 1, AmeriPride began servicing Model Laundry’s existing accounts out of its Hibbing, MN, branch and service centers. Dave Hardy, general manager, oversaw the transition.
“We expect a smooth and seamless transition for the customers,” said John Sutherland, senior vice president of U.S. operations at AmeriPride. “Our Hibbing production facility has the capacity and resources to take on the additional volume, and this acquisition is a great growth opportunity for us. It also provides an opportunity to introduce new products, services and online tools to the customers.”
