Business Highlights:

30+ Years in the Same Location: Continuously operated in the same high traffic location for more than three decades under long-tenured prior ownership. Customer relationships on record span ten-plus years — the kind of habitual, recurring ticket flow a new entrant needs a decade to build.

Growing Under Current Ownership Without a Price Increase: The store has grown since the current owner took over about a year ago, driven by operational improvements rather than pricing or marketing spend — leaving pricing power fully intact for the next owner.

Exceptional Margin Structure on a Three-Day Production Crew: The plant runs on a three-day-per-week presser and a three-day-per-week spotter plus counter coverage. Sustaining this level of volume on a part-time production schedule is uncommon in this industry and reflects a high-average-ticket store in a high-income trade area.

Full On-Site Plant — Nothing Outsourced: All garment cleaning performed in-house on owned equipment. Consumable supply costs are minimal, limited essentially to hangers and poly bags.

Organic Wet Cleaning — No Perc: The plant operates a wet cleaning system with no perchloroethylene or comparable solvents, materially reducing environmental compliance exposure, permitting friction, and insurance complexity relative to a traditional solvent plant.

Alterations Brought In-House: Ownership invested in on-site sewing machines, capturing alterations margin that was previously sent out to a third party and are now done on site.

5.0 Google Rating and Regional Recognition: Perfect 5.0 rating with reviews citing garment quality, the on-site seamstress, and counter service. Recognized among Long Island’s top cleaners, with plaque and in-store banner on display.

Highest-Rated Cleaner in the Submarket, With No Comparable Competitor Within a Half Mile: The nearest competing operators sit 0.6 to 1.1 miles out and carry meaningful service gaps — one is cash-only and closed Mondays, another closed Tuesdays, and two more sit at 3.5-star ratings with recurring garment-handling and service complaints.

Skilled Staff In Place, With Prior Owners Available: Conveys with an established team including a high-quality presser, spotter, counter staff, and tailor.

New Five-Year Lease Signed March 2026: Full term conveys with no near-term renewal risk. 3% annual escalation with a nominal $100 monthly common charge covering common-area cleaning and maintenance.

Modern POS With Full Reporting Visibility: A new point-of-sale system replaced a legacy DOS-based platform in February 2026. Sales, ticket, and customer data are fully reportable — a buyer inherits real operating visibility rather than reconstructed records.

Structured for Part-Time Ownership: The business does not require full-time owner labor. Ownership recommends roughly three days per week of owner presence to maintain quality standards and customer relationships.

Growth Lever — Pickup and Delivery Not Currently Offered: The store generates zero P&D revenue today. Walk-in customers request the service regularly and are turned away. In a trade area of this income profile, this is the highest-ROI addition available and requires no incremental plant capacity.

Growth Lever — Two Multifamily Buildings Pre-Identified, Introductions Offered: The seller has personally toured two high-rent apartment buildings in the Forest Hills / Queens Boulevard corridor, 15–20 minutes from the store, at approximately 100 units each — nearly 200 doors combined — and has offered to introduce the buyer directly to the building managers and supers at closing. Additional buildings in the same corridor are accessible.


Seller Cooperative on Transition: Seller is willing to provide training and assistance temporarily post sale.

Reason for Sale: Owner retirement. Ownership is dissolving a passive partnership and exiting the industry.
