Speed-Queen-Laundry-Logo_f-1Speed Queen has announced that the first Speed Queen Laundry franchise in South Carolina is set to open in Greenville, with grand opening activities slated for September 7-14.

The 2,800-square-foot location features touchscreen controls, washers with capacities ranging from 20 to 80 pounds, and 45-pound stack dryers. In addition, families no doubt will appreciate the children’s area, which includes books and iPads to keep kids engaged while their parents focus on the laundry tasks.

“We are beyond excited to bring this amazing laundromat to the people of Greenville,” said Dan Bowe, general manager of North America Speed Queen Franchise Operations. “Our goal is to take the chore out of doing the laundry and deliver a customer experience like no other in the industry. Across the country, our Speed Queen Laundry franchises are changing peoples’ perceptions of just what a laundromat can be.”

Grand opening festivities will include food trucks, free wash cycles for customers and more. Also, new customers who download and sign up for the Speed Queen app – which streamlines the experience with app payment, a rewards program and access to special promotions – will receive $5 added to their accounts.
