DETROIT —This year, Domestic Uniform Rental marks its 90th anniversary of serving the uniform, linen and dust control needs of its customers, the company reports.
Domestic says it shares this honor with all of the men and women who made it possible: devoted, loyal employees; suppliers who have become partners; valued customers who have grown alongside Domestic; and communities that have welcomed Domestic as neighbors and local contributors.
The company had humble beginnings as Domestic Linen Supply and Laundry Co., operating out of a converted horse stable in downtown Detroit in 1926. Domestic says its commitment to hard work, superior product quality and providing exceptional service mirrored Detroit’s status as a blue-collar city at the epicenter of the 20th -century industrial boom.
Domestic grew dramatically in tandem with Detroit’s industry, increasing its product offerings and customer base, and creating more jobs, the company says.
During the latter half of the 20th century, Domestic expanded operations throughout the Midwest, and with strategic acquisitions took a strong foothold in the Northeast, Atlantic Coast, and California.
Despite this rapid growth, Domestic says it has held onto the ideals of its family-oriented roots, inspiring strong customer and employee loyalty into the 21st century.
