Alliance Laundry Systems, Ripon, and REM Company, Inc. have entered into an exclusive agreement, subject to due diligence, to acquire the distribution assets of REM, with a target closing of Feb. 1.
“From the very beginnings of the company, the Moore family made customer service the number one priority,” said Craig Dakauskas, senior vice president, Americas Commercial, Alliance Laundry Systems. “That commitment remains just as strong today and is a driving factor in our desire to bring them into our direct distribution family.”
Upon closing, REM will become part of the Alliance Laundry Systems Distribution South Region, while maintaining its Versailles, Kentucky office. REM’s history in the industry dates back more than fou founding in Bob and Carol Moore’s Lexington apartment. Since then, the couple and their son, current President Mark Moore, built the business into a laundry leader covering Kentucky and Tennessee and serving customers in a variety of markets.
“As a UniMac distributor for years, I know, without a doubt, that Alliance’s values mirror our own. I’m optimistic that we will arrive at an agreement and that our customers will continue to be well taken care of,” Mark said.
