Linen King Acquisition Adds Operation in Tennessee

Linen King, a provider of healthcare laundry services in the south and central United States, recently announced the acquisition of a laundry processing facility in Ooltewah, TN, from Angelica Corp. The acquisition adds the seventh laundry facility and 25 million pounds of processing capacity to Linen King’s network of plants across five states, according to a news release.

The Ooltewah facility complements Linen King’s existing plant in Memphis, and extends the company’s full-service capabilities into the southeast markets of Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina and Kentucky.

“The purchase of the Ooltewah facility aligns with our long-standing commitment to our core markets in the south and central U.S., where we have served customers for over 20 years,” said Linen King Founder and CEO Leonard McCullough. “Our reputation for reliable, best-in-class service is built on our deep pool of regional resources and our outstanding team. Ooltewah builds on this foundation by increasing our service capacity and geographic redundancy for customers across our markets. This acquisition also supports a natural expansion of our regional footprint, and we are excited to serve new customers across several southeast states.”

Linen King provides a wide range of customized laundry solutions for its clients out of its seven processing facilities in Arkansas (Conway and Springdale), Kansas (Wichita), Missouri (Columbia), Oklahoma (Midwest City) and Tennessee (Memphis and Ooltewah).
