Build Your Own Laundry Empire — Join America's First National Laundry Network
Become part of a rapidly expanding, asset-light business model backed by the trusted kathy ireland® brand. Choose your level — Regional Operator, Area Operator, or Neighborhood Concierge — and build a business that pays for years to come.
Become an Operator
A $40B+ Industry Ripe for Transformation
Laundry is essential, recession-resistant, and growing fast — especially in the on-demand delivery space. Americans spend over $40 billion annually on laundry services, yet no national provider has solved the problem of scale, consistency, or brand trust.
That's where kathy ireland® Laundry comes in. We are building the first unified, coast-to-coast laundry network powered by trained, supported local operators and a trusted global lifestyle brand. This is your opportunity to join a movement that's transforming an entire industry.
The market is massive. The timing is perfect. The infrastructure is ready. All we need now are the right operators to bring this vision to life in communities across America.
Why Our Model Wins: A Smarter Way to Scale
Traditional laundry businesses demand high capital investment, brick-and-mortar locations, heavy equipment, and years of payback. Gig platforms lack proper training and consistency. Laundromats can't efficiently run logistics or uphold national quality standards across multiple locations.
Asset-Light Entry
No expensive facilities, equipment, or long-term leases required to get started
Rapid Market Expansion
Launch quickly and scale efficiently with proven systems and support
Local Support
Operators backed by regional leadership and national infrastructure
Predictable Revenue
Multiple income streams create stable, recurring cash flow
Our tiered operator model solves all of it. You get national brand marketing, shared technology platforms, comprehensive training programs, and strong long-term earning potential. This is your opportunity to build not just income, but real equity and multi-tier royalties as the brand grows nationwide.
Choose Your Path: Three Ways to Build a Laundry Business
Whether you're an experienced investor seeking regional control, a multi-unit operator ready to manage territories, or an individual looking for flexible income, we have a tier designed for your goals and resources. Each level offers distinct advantages, earning potential, and growth opportunities.

Why Laundromats Make Great Partners (But Not Operators)
Most laundromats are expertly built for walk-in customers, not for the complex logistics, delivery coordination, or branded service that modern consumers demand from on-demand platforms.
What Traditional Laundromats Lack
  • Standardized workflows for high-volume pickup and delivery
  • Dedicated labor forces trained in logistics and customer service
  • Extended operating hours that match on-demand service expectations
  • Sophisticated routing and delivery management systems
  • Scalable capacity directly tied to fluctuating demand patterns
  • Consistent quality control across multiple customer touchpoints
  • A recognizable national brand identity that builds trust

That's why laundromats make excellent processing partners—not operators. Our trained operators handle all customer logistics, routing, quality control, and service delivery. Laundromats provide the essential processing throughput and capacity. Together, they create a scalable, efficient service model that benefits everyone.
