CHICAGO LEADING DRY CLEANER JOINS FORCES WITH LEADING CLEANERS IN AMERICA TO CO-MARKET UNIQUE SERVICES

When Vogue Magazine set out to identify the Fashion Mechanics - drycleaners in New York, California and Chicago that each city’s premier retailers recommended to their clients for their fabricare expertise and exemplary service - Davis Imperial Cleaners was the only drycleaner recognized in Chicago. Family owned and operated since 1956, Davis is a certified environmental drycleaner, certified professional drycleaner, Illinois “Gold” Star Drycleaner, and the only licensed wedding gown preservation specialist in Chicago. Davis Imperial Cleaners is dedicated to providing extraordinary quality and exceptional service to Chicago’s most discriminating clientele. Using old world hand processing techniques, pick up and delivery service, state of the art equipment, innovative packaging and security procedures, Davis Imperial Cleaners has set a benchmark for the industry.

While Davis Imperial Cleaners has built an unparalleled reputation in Chicago for providing distinctive dry cleaning services, they are among a handful of dry cleaners throughout North America that specialize in cleaning and restoring designer and haute couture garments and textiles. In an effort to promote their customized services, a select group of dry cleaners in North America have joined with Davis to form Leading Cleaners of America. Other members of this newly formed consortium include Coronet Fine Dry Cleaning in Houston, Creeds Dry Cleaning of Toronto, Hallak Cleaners of New Jersey, Meurice Garment Care of New York, Margaret’s Cleaners of San Diego, and New City Cleaners in Bakersfield, CA.

“We are a group of dry cleaners who have come together to offer consumers, retailers, designers and manufacturers throughout North America access to fabric care services delivered with a singular passion for excellence,” said Jack Creed, a founding Director of Leading Cleaners of America and owner of Creed’s Dry Cleaning in Toronto.

Through a newly launched web site, www.leadingcleaners.com, people can search for information about each of the consortium members and can link to their respective web sites. Leading Cleaners of America will expand its membership base through an application process that ensures that prospective members meet the standards set by the organization.

“We believe that by establishing a partnership among like-providers, we can more effectively and efficiently co-market our services,” said Creed.

The Leading Dry Cleaners of America is the sole organization that sets the standard for specialized dry cleaning services.
