Dry Cleaners in the US

The industry includes dry cleaning and full-service laundry establishments that cater to household consumers and commercial clients such as hotels and restaurants. Dry cleaners may also offer specialty cleaning services for delicate garments and textiles. Over the past five years, the industry has experienced difficult operating conditions. Declining demand for professional dry cleaning services, unfavorable shifts in consumer preferences and increasing competition from coin-operated laundromats, franchised establishments and substitute products have led to the industry's decline. Also, the COVID-19 pandemic and economic downturn resulted in drastic revenue declines in 2020. Consequently, industry revenue is expected to fall at a CAGR of 6.7% to $7.6 billion over the past five years.
