The fourth-generation, family-owned company launched in Dayton in 1931. Today, it employs about 270 workers and has locations in Cincinnati, Columbus, Zanesville and Indianapolis.
Economy Linen says it is a leading linen rental and service provider that serves hospitals, medical facilities, restaurants and hospitality businesses.
“As we enter our 90th year in business, Economy Linen continues to make thoughtful investments to better serve our customers and community,” said Bruce Feldman, the company’s president. “We are ready to grow, create new jobs and help Dayton recover and thrive in the post-pandemic world.”
Construction is expected to begin on the new facility in 2021. The building is expected to open in the first quarter of 2022.
City of Dayton officials said the project will provide a major boost to West Dayton.
