The laundromat business is a recession-resistant industry that has enabled countless investors to build successful multi-store enterprises that can prosper for generations. When Bernie Milch founded Laundrylux in the 1950s with the first of many all-Wascomat laundromats in Manhattan, he couldn’t have dreamed that the family business would still be thriving nearly seven decades later. Wascomat’s distributor and maintenance networks are now bigger than ever – and with more store owners wanting to provide high-performance washers and dryers to their communities, there’s never been a better time to build a laundromat business that will last through the years.
