the U.S. and Canada in office buildings, residential
communities, multifamily
residences and parking
structures.
To operate the selfservice lockers, customers
lock their dirty garments
in a “bizzie box,” and text
bizzie their box number to
place their order. When
the order is complete and
put back in the locker, the
customer receives a text
from bizzie with a personalized identification number which enables them to
retrieve their items with
unprecedented ease and
on their own schedule.
Clean Brands, L.L.C.’s
nationally recognized
1-800-DryClean chain
will power the new ser-
vice, along with the addition of new bizzie franchises. The company’s
broad existing national
footprint combined with
the comprehensive new
service ideally positions
bizzie to make an immediate and dramatic impact in
the U.S. and Canada. Territories are available for
