Miami company buys $8M Manatee County firm

Crown Linen, a South Florida commercial laundry and linen firm, has expanded to the Sarasota-Bradenton market with the acquisition of Laundry Plus.

Terms of the deal weren't disclosed. Manatee County-based Laundry Plus, founded in 1989, had $8.2 million in revenues in 2015 and has 103 employees.

Miami-based Crown Linen, says Managing Partner Pablo Lucchesi in a release, has more than doubled its facilities in the last year with the Laundry Plus purchase. It now has operations in Miami, Orlando, Fort Myers and Haines City, according to a release.
