ZIPS Franchise

Dry cleaning for $2.49


Dry cleaning is not a new concept; dry cleaning the ZIPS way, is. It's simply "Professional Cleaning. Unbeatable Pricing." Our successful business model is based on the revolutionary concept of dry cleaning any garment for just $2.49 - that's less than half the price of today's industry average. Plus, we offer this price with same-day pickup - "in by 9, out by 5."

Our competitors can't touch it. ZIPS' one price/high volume customer prepay business model outperforms independent operators with high average store sales.

At the base of our success is our efficient, technology-based operating system…but that's just the beginning.

ZIPS' efficient, technology based operating system, that's how! Our system combines proven technologies with state-of-the-art equipment.
