A
Brilliant Solution To The Initial Problem
Following
the announcement by Rentokil Initial plc that they will be closing
their loss-making UK Linen and Workwear operations of Initial Hygiene
UK, to focus on their UK Washroom and Dustmat business, David
Stevens, Chairman of Brilliant Laundry Group suggests their customers
should look before they leap into new contracts. Customers of
Initial's UK Linen and Workwear services have been notified of the
decision and that the company will close their operations on 30 April 2006.
David Stevens
comments, "Many restaurant owners and hoteliers are likely to
feel panicked by this announcement and feel they have to sign with
the first laundry that comes along. Although three months sounds a
long enough lead-time, it is in reality quite a short timescale to
introduce a new laundry contract. However, I believe that it should
be an opportunity for Initial customers to pause and reflect on what
they would like their future laundry service to look like."
The Brilliant
Laundry Group is the commercial laundry industry's best kept secret.
With a group turnover in excess of £100m, they are one of the
largest laundry providers with full coverage throughout the UK and
Ireland. Customers are given easy access to key decision makers - so
it's perfectly normal to pick up the phone and talk to a director -
from Victor in Scotland to David in the South or Anthony in the East.
"We've long since realised that what we do is ultimately about
people rather than laundry (our people, your people, people using our
napkins in your restaurant, people sleeping on our sheets in your
bedrooms, people wearing our workwear in your factory&ldots;), so
everything we do is important and worthwhile. We're passionate about
keeping everyone happy by offering the best possible laundry
service", adds David.
Last night,
over 100,000 people slept on Brilliant bed linen, then no doubt awoke
this morning to wrap themselves in a Brilliant towel after a shower!
Whether this is at one of the most prestigious 5 star establishments,
a budget roadside hotel or a privately owned B&B.
The Brilliant
Laundry Group is not just a supplier of linen however. They also
dress thousands of chefs every day, not to mention some of the
largest workwear contracts in the country, for example Honda UK
Manufacturing with over 5000 wearers.
