What we do
The term vended/coin laundry is defined as commercial-grade, self-service laundry equipment placed in service a retail space. Vended laundries generally occupy the retail space on long-term leases (10-25 years) and generate steady cash flow over the life of the lease. Vended laundries are a unique small business in that there is no inventory or receivables.
