A Glimpse into the Industry's Past
In conjunction with the launch of PlanetLaundry magazine, the Coin Laundry Association is re-releasing the first issue of The Journal.
Readers are invited to thumb through the association’s first publication and compare it to how far both the industry and individual laundries have come since 1990. A sample of the table of contents includes:
- Should You Have a Mini-Mart in Your Store?
- How Store Owners Penetrate the Vending Business
- Cellular Phones: Technology in Transit
- How to Get Along with Your Attorney
- Legislative Alerts
The magazine contains articles that are still relevant today and a few that show their age. There are also some surprises like the feature article with Connie Chung and a Budweiser advertisement.
At the time, the articles were on the cutting-edge of technology and facility management. That same mission holds true to the rebranded publication, PlanetLaundry magazine. PlanetLaundry will continue to deliver the same high-quality articles, guest columnists and strategies for maximizing the return on your laundry investment.
We invite you to share feedback about the new format at comments@planetlaundry.com.
