Q & A with Stevie Gator

 

  • Why has the Lapels business model been so successful?

    The Hub & Spokes business model is something that many companies are trying to replicate. Dry Cleaning was our countries first ever Hub & Spokes Business Model and continues to be a great way to build a business. We start with building an Environmentally Friendly Dry Cleaning Plant like no other in the country. We feature things like cherry cabinets, granite counter tops, French doors, pendant lighting as well as cleaning with eco friendly solvents and equipment. Then we build very cost effective Satellite Stores within a 30 mile radius of the Plant and offer pickup and delivery for both residences and corporations within that territory.

  • What makes your industry attractive to a potential franchisee?

    There are several things that have made the Dry Cleaning Industry so successful with people looking to create their own business. First and foremost the Industry has a very low Cost Of Goods ranging in the 8%-9% range, there is no inventory and the business is very scalable…giving the owner / operator the ability to grow at his/her own pace by strategically adding satellite stores over time.
