Profile: Alsco Uniform Services

If you're driven to advance yourself through an exciting career opportunity, we want to talk to you. Alsco is a company of winners: people who want to make a difference and who want to be recognized and rewarded for personal and team performance.

Alsco can proudly claim to be known as the first supplier of textile services worldwide. The fact is, we not only invented the textile services business, we actually established its standards. From a modest beginning in 1889 in Lincoln, Nebraska, Alsco has grown into a global industry leader. We operate service centers at more than 120 locations in ten countries throughout the world. Every day hundreds of thousands of customer pickups and deliveries are made, representing literally millions of pieces of flat linens, uniforms, chef's outfits, cleanroom garments, dust control items, paper supplies and more. That represents the accumulated progress of well over a century of growth.

Why is Alsco history important to you? Simply this: We have more experience with more types of textile services, to more customers, in more countries, for more years than any other supplier in the world. That's why we say Alsco is first in textile services worldwide. Despite our tremendous success and enviable track record, Alsco remains a privately-owned and operated business. This not only guarantees the quality and integrity of a family-owned operation; it guarantees that every one of our customers will receive the same responsive service and one-on-one attention we've provided for more than 110 years.

Ever since 1889, when Alsco first introduced the world to the convenience and economy of textile services, consumers have come to associate a crisp, good-looking uniform with quality, credibility, confidence and perceived value.

Today, nearly 120 years later, Alsco has literally millions of customers throughout the world who have come to rely on us to make them look better, work smarter and operate more efficiently with a full service uniform rental or lease program. Their customers appreciate the value a quality uniform adds to the goods and services they purchase, and they say so, in study upon study. In fact, a recent landmark survey, conducted by J.D. Powers & Associates, shows dramatically how much value customers place on the presence of a uniform in making a first-time or repeat purchase decision. For example, according to the study, "the majority of consumers believe employees in uniform have positive personal characteristics." The study also showed that business-to-business respondents indicated strong preferences for uniforms in almost every setting.
