This is a workwear supply and industrial laundry business based in South Western Ontario, with decades of operating history. It supplies work garments to more than 100 commercial, industrial, agricultural and municipal customers on scheduled weekly routes reaching the London, Windsor and Toronto areas. The company owns the garments it supplies, launders them in its own plant and returns them on a fixed weekly cycle. Floor mat service and over-the-counter sales of new workwear round out the offering.
The current owners, a husband-and-wife team, bought the business in 2020 and run it with a small part-time staff, each working about 35 hours a week over three long days. Their daughter also works in the business. Customer relationships have carried through the change of ownership.
The asking price is $513,000 on FY2026 revenue of $454,634 and adjusted SDE of $213,786, about 2.40 times SDE. The price is for the operating business. The land and building are owned separately and are available at additional cost. Saleable inventory is purchased separately at cost. All Reasonable Requests for Seller Financing will be Considered. All figures CAD.

FY2026 adjusted SDE of $213,786 is a 47.0% margin on revenue of $454,634. SDE margins have held between 42.4% and 49.8% over the last three fiscal years, with the owners working a compressed schedule of about three long days a week each. SDE is stated after a market-rate occupancy cost and a replacement wage for the route role, so a buyer sees what an owner-operator can expect to earn. All figures CAD.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Recurring weekly route revenue. Garments are supplied, collected, laundered and returned on a fixed weekly schedule, producing repeat billings from the same customers.
Decades of operating history. The business has served the region continuously for decades and has been run by its current owners since 2020.
Broad, diversified customer base. More than 100 customers across municipal, manufacturing, agricultural and commercial accounts, with no identified customer concentration.
Strong margins. A 47.0% SDE margin in FY2026 after a replacement wage for the route role.
Vertically integrated operation. The company owns its garment pool and launders everything in its own plant, controlling quality, turnaround and cost.
Established route network. Routes already reach the London, Windsor and Toronto areas, so new accounts along those corridors can be added at low incremental cost.
Room for a full-time operator. Each owner works about 35 hours a week over three days, leaving clear capacity for someone to add hours.
Supported transition. The sellers have offered to stay on and train a buyer, including introductions to customers.
Products and Services
Garment supply: Company-owned coveralls, shirts and pants supplied to customer staff and exchanged weekly
Industrial laundry: In-house washing and drying of all supplied garments
Glove service: Work gloves supplied and laundered for industrial accounts
Floor mats: Mats delivered to customer premises and serviced on route
Roller towels: Roller towel service supported by the company’s own roller towel machine
Workwear retail: New workwear sold over the counter at the company’s premises
Growth Opportunities
Add hours to sales and service. Each owner works about three days a week, so a full-time operator has room to grow.
Follow up inbound demand. The owners report inquiries from prospective customers that have not been pursued, an immediate source of new accounts.
Build a sales process. Growth has come through relationships and word of mouth, leaving room for outbound and digital lead generation.
Grow along existing routes. Routes already reach the London, Windsor and Toronto areas, so new accounts on those corridors add revenue at low incremental cost.
Expand secondary lines. Floor mats, roller towels and retail workwear are established but secondary, with room to grow within existing accounts.
Formalize customer agreements. Written service agreements can strengthen revenue visibility.
Pursue tuck-in expansion. An established operator can combine routes, laundry capacity and purchasing with other local operators.
What Is Included
The sale includes the operating business and the assets used to deliver its services: the in-house laundry plant and equipment, the company-owned garment pool, the roller towel machine, the retail counter and the established weekly routes and customer relationships. Saleable inventory is purchased separately at cost. The land and building are owned separately and are available at additional cost.
Transition Support
The sellers have offered to stay on and train a buyer, with personal introductions to customers and a handover of route schedules, supplier and equipment knowledge and day-to-day operating procedures. The sellers’ daughter works in the business and knows the operation well.
