Drycleaning businesses included on magazine's 'Franchise 500' list

摘要

The Certified Restoration Drycleaning Network (CRDN) is the top drycleaning business named in Entrepreneur magazine's 35th annual "Franchise 500" list, the company reports. This is the seventh straight year CRDN has made the list, receiving an overall ranking of No. 278 for 2014. The list recognizes growth-oriented franchises based on objective, quantifiable measurements including financial strength and stability, growth rate and size of the system, according to the company. "During challenging economic times that have taken a toll on retail dry cleaning, CRDN's focus on insurance restoration services has enabled our members to realize meaningful business growth from coast to coast," says Wayne Wudyka, CRDN's founder and CEO. "CRDN's success has resulted from ongoing education of the insurance industry about the cost-effectiveness of restoring damaged textiles instead of replacing them."
