G&K Services

With revenues of $520 million, G&K Services, headquartered in Minnetonka, Minn., ranks as one of North America's largest suppliers of uniforms and related textiles.

From 125 locations and growing, G&K provides service to more than 100,000 active customers in 39 states and two Canadian provinces. The Company's almost 7,700 employees process over 2.0 million garments each day.

Since 1902, G&K has been recognized as a premier source for quality uniform programs. The company serves a diverse base of customers in industrial, service and high-tech industries, including essentially every type of facility, such as auto dealerships, schools, health care and food service operations, and semiconductor or pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities.

G&K is more than just uniforms. Although uniform rentals account for about 60 percent of our total revenues, the balance is derived primarily from items such as floor mats, dust mops and cloths, wiping towels, restroom supplies such as cloth roll towels, soap dispensers and air fresheners.
