HANOVER, MA…
In its company literature, Lapels Dry Cleaning describes itself as “an innovative, environmentally friendly dry cleaning company”. Entrepreneur magazine agrees, listing the Hanover, Massachusetts based franchisor as one of several franchisors that have used innovation as a means to attracting new franchisees.
“The best way for franchisors to attract new business is by being different: doing something no one else has done before, or doing something old in a new way,” said Tracy Stapp Herold, author of the article entitled “The Leading Edge: Franchisors Are Innovating in Big Ways”. “Innovation is just as important to a system with 30,000 units as one that’s just starting out.”
Innovations cited include:
- Eco-friendly solvents use to clean clothes
- Machines that maintain and recycle cleaning solution
- LED lighting in its signage
- Hanger recycling programs conducted by franchisees with proceeds going to local food pantries.
“To us, being an environmentally responsible dry cleaner is just the right way to do business. If that attracts new franchisees, even better. But our goal has been and will continue to be improving the way we do our business and our offerings,” said Kevin Dubois, CEO of Lapels Dry Cleaning.
Lapels has pioneered its eco-friendly dry cleaning experience over the past 10-plus years.
