HYANNIS, Mass. — PureStar, a national provider of hospitality laundry services with headquarters in Las Vegas, reports that it has acquired locally based Cape Cod Commercial Linen Service Inc.
Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Founded in 1985 by Jeffrey Ehart, Cape Cod Commercial Linen Service began with a vision and a handful of commercial accounts operating from his father’s laundromat. He grew the commercial side of the business with his father before purchasing it from the family in 1997.
Over the next four decades, the company grew into one of the region’s most respected hospitality laundry providers through an unwavering commitment to customer service, investment in employees, and a relentless focus on quality, PureStar says.
Today, the company serves hotels, resorts, vacation rental operators, restaurants, and country clubs throughout Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, and Newport, Rhode Island, as well as the greater New England market.
The company says the acquisition strengthens PureStar’s presence in New England while expanding its ability to serve one of the nation's premier hospitality destinations.
“Jeffrey and Patrick Ehart have built an exceptional company with an outstanding reputation for quality, reliability and customer service,” says Brian Herington, CEO of PureStar. “Their commitment to employees, customers and their community has created a business admired throughout the hospitality industry.
“We are honored to welcome Cape Cod Commercial Linen Service to the PureStar family and look forward to investing in its future while building on the remarkable legacy the Ehart family has created.”
The Eharts will remain with the company following the acquisition, says PureStar. Jeffrey will continue serving as a trusted adviser and ambassador for the business he founded, while Patrick will continue leading day-to-day operations and partnering with PureStar to guide the company’s next phase of growth.
Cape Cod Commercial Linen Service will continue operating from its Hyannis headquarters, and customers will continue working with the same local management team and employees they know and trust.
The partnership with PureStar provides additional capacity, technology, and operational resources while preserving the company’s customer-first culture and longstanding commitment to service.
