The PGA National Resort will host CLA’s premier event providing the opportunity “to learn, network with 200 of the best store owners in America, and meet one-on-one with leading industry companies.”

The Conference targeting experienced, multi-store operators will be focused on best practices and innovative solutions to scale a laundry business and increase productivity, CLA says, but will also hold a separate track focused on investors getting into the business.

Some of the scheduled sessions will include:

• Economic Update: What Laundromat Owners Should Expect in the Second Half of 2024 and Beyond
• The New Model for Growth-Mindset Laundromat Investors
• Building an Effective Talent Strategy: Proven Tactics to Attract, Hire and Retain Your Most Valuable Asset
• Layering In Management & Maintenance Beyond 5 Stores
• Taking the Mystery Out of Customer Service
• Million Dollar Marketing: Tools and Tactics to Scaling Smarter
• Maximizing Profits Through Laundromat Technology Integration
• Effects of WDF & PUD on In-store Retail Customers

CLA says it’s offering bundled pricing to attend both Excellence in Laundry and Excellent Women in Laundry, a full-day event that will include keynote speakers, panel discussions, roundtables and many opportunities to network with women in the industry.
