Laundry pickup-and-delivery service HappyNest has expanded its operation into the greater Boston market.
“HappyNest has been growing rapidly along the East Coast, but we have been pretty methodical in our search close to our home base in Rhode Island,” said HappyNest founder John MacKrell. “Beatriz Patzan and Jose Piedra worked for HappyNest in the very beginning – so bringing them back into the fold will be a real treat. They both understand the business model, the software and the importance of repeating the processes necessary to make this business successful. Having this much experience and a great staff in the laundromat will help them grow very quickly.”
Patzan and Piedra have been in the laundry industry for the better part of 15 years and have specialized in the pickup-and-delivery business in the Boston/Rhode Island area for the last six years. In addition, they plan on making it a family affair, as the couple’s two daughters will be assisting with production in the laundromat.
“Beatriz and I have dreamed of owning our own business for 20 years and, because of HappyNest, we are living the American dream of business ownership,” Piedra explained. “It’s in the industry we have basically grown up with, so it should be a very comfortable transition.”
“Having worked for John, supervising his pickup-and-delivery business, I learned so much about the daily operations that it should be second nature starting this adventure,” Patzan added. “I can’t thank HappyNest enough for the opportunity to own and operate my own business.”
