Overview
After 22 years of research, development and
successful store operations experience, we felt the time was right to
launch an expansion plan utilizing the management skill and motivation
of independent Franchise Owners. According to the International
Franchise Association, franchising accounts for almost 10% of all
retail sales in the United States. By any measure, franchising has been
a highly successful expansion model for all stakeholders--consumers and
entrepreneurs alike. The CD One Price Cleaners' Manage-to-Own Program
is an outstanding opportunity for the right individual.

Setting New Standards in Dry Cleaning
Our continued success will be determined by how well we execute our strategy -- offering an outstanding dry cleaning experience to our customers at a competitive price point. At CD One Price Cleaners, we are garment specialists and focus our efforts on the largest segment of the market and the most frequently cleaned items. We choose not to offer service in leathers, down, other household goods or perform alterations and wedding gown preservation. By doing so, we offer our customers the best value on their most frequently cleaned garments. By providing outstanding service at a value price we prove that all dry cleaners are not the same. In fact, we strive to exceed our customers' expectations.
Our well-trained, uniformed staff members greet each customer with a smile and an ear for any special requests or specific garment problems. And while they are waiting for service, our customers can help themselves to a free cup of gourmet coffee. At CD One Price Cleaners, we value high levels of customer service because while our customers may be initially drawn by our low prices, they become long-term customers because of the quality of our service. In fact, all our laundered shirts are hand-finished, ensuring an outstanding finished product. Our well-honed operational procedures and state-of-the-art equipment clean clothing quickly and efficiently and because all the cleaning is done on-site, customers can drop off in the morning before 10:00am and pickup the same day at 5:00 at no extra charge.
Our low prices drive customers to our stores, but it is the quality of our services that keep them coming back. With a foundation of over 15 years of experience in all facets of the dry cleaning industry, the staff at CD One Price Cleaners remains committed to continous operational improvement. By honing the efficiency of our operation, we are able to deliver an outstanding finished product at a great price. Our stores are typically around 3000 square feet and are welcoming, well-lighted stores where the production process is in open view for our customers, not hidden in the back like a traditional dry cleaner. And the combination of efficient operational processes and the latest high tech, environmentally friendly cleaning equipment allows us to clean a large number of garments every day. And while the small, neighborhood dry cleaner with a 1000-1200 square foot store would like to compete with us on price, they typically canﾒt do it for one simple reason--their stores are not large enough to profitably produce the cleaning volume.

Why CD One Price Cleaners?
On a consumer level, branded franchised
businesses attract customers seeking consistency in products and
services from location to location. Consumers know what to expect when
they visit a franchised business. For entrepreneurial individuals
interested in opening their own business, franchise ownership allows
the owner to utilize the proven methods, practices, training, marketing
plans and operational know-how of the franchisor, thereby increasing
the chance of long term success.The market for dry cleaning services is broad and deep since a vast section of the population requires the service on a regular basis. And the demand for dry cleaning within a specific market is highly predictable since having clean garments is not discretionary--it is a requirement. In any given market, there is a certain amount of clothing to be cleaned this week and every week in the future. Further, the potential market continues to look bright as manufacturers' increase the production of garments labeled as "dry clean only." Additionally, due to tight time scheduling, busy consumers are choosing to dry clean garments over washing and ironing to save personal time. These strong consumer fundamentals have allowed the dry cleaning industry to survive many economic swings through the years, resulting in a strength and resiliency envied by many other industries.
And while the marketplace for dry cleaning services is huge, it is a highly fragmented market predominated by small, independent "mom and pop" cleaning operations. Just like so many other industries, the dry cleaning services market is ripe for consolidation. During the past several years, the office supply, pizza, video rental, home improvement, neighborhood coffee shop and flower industries have evolved from fragmented industries to markets dominated by national players with a regional or national affiliation. Dry cleaning is one of the few unconsolidated industries left, creating an opportunity for a successful rollout of the CD One Price Cleaners value priced, customer focused and operationally efficient "superstore" concept in dry cleaning.
