Earth Friendly Plant - Combine a retail store with your own plant to process your garments & those of other stores. In some areas we have Lapels stores anxiously awaiting your opening. And the best part is that you are operating an environmentally friendly dry cleaning plant. This is better for you, your employees, your customers and your landlord.
Area Developer Program - Take advantage of the dry cleaning industry's hub and spoke system. Open a centrally located environmentally-friendly processing plant with retail front and then service three drop stores within 20 miles of that plant. Also included is the Lapels Express residential and corporate pick-up and delivery system. It's the best way to really penetrate and control an entire market.

"After many years of working for someone else in sales and in advertising I felt it was time to take control of my own future and open a business that would benefit me and my family. When the time arrived, I decided I wanted a business that had low up front costs and virtually no inventory to carry. The Lapel's Dry Cleaning concept was one that appealed immediately to me. I am happy that I joined the Lapel's Family. I would wholeheartedly recommend a lapel's Franchise opportunity to anyone I know who's looking for a career change and hands on support from the Franchise company."
