Turnkey Linen Rental Business w/ Recurring Venue Accounts (Topeka–KC)
Business Description
We are a well-established linen rental business founded in 2017, built to serve wedding venues and event professionals who need consistent quality, accuracy, and reliability. Unlike large “everything-rental” competitors, we have operated with a focused niche—linens—and have become a trusted partner for venues, planners, caterers, and event teams who value fast communication, dependable delivery, and a smooth, repeatable experience.
This is a true operator-friendly opportunity: the business is organized, systematized, and designed around recurring professional accounts that place orders based on their event calendars. The workflow is straightforward and repeatable—orders are scheduled, prepared, delivered, picked up, then processed and restocked—creating predictable weekly production and delivery rhythms. The result is a business that can be run efficiently with a part-time warehouse role plus owner oversight, and it is positioned for a hands-on owner/operator to step in and scale.
Financially, the business has demonstrated strong performance historically. The business generated $215K in revenue in 2023 and $158K in 2024, and the owner is providing a simple SDE summary upon request. The current customer base and historical ordering patterns support a strong upcoming wedding season, with meaningful upside available through expanded marketing and additional venue partnerships. (Detailed financials and CIM are available to qualified buyers.)
A buyer will be acquiring more than inventory and equipment—this is the transfer of a functioning service operation with established relationships, proven processes, and a reputation in the market. The business can be a strong fit for:
* An owner/operator looking for a practical, asset-backed business with a clear weekly rhythm
* An event-industry business (rentals, catering, venues, planning, etc.) seeking to add a specialized linen operation
* Someone with laundry, dry cleaning, laundromat, or commercial laundry experience who can leverage existing operational strengths
* A motivated first-time business owner looking for an approachable model with training and a clear playbook
Transition support is available to ensure a smooth handoff and protect client continuity. The seller will provide structured training and guidance, including an introduction strategy for key accounts and best practices for maintaining service standards that drive repeat orders.
Confidentiality is important. Buyers will be asked to sign an NDA and provide proof of funds prior to receiving the CIM, detailed customer information, and complete financial documentation.

- Market Outlook / Competition
- We serve the Kansas City wedding/event market from a Topeka base, supporting venues and event professionals with recurring weekly orders tied to venue calendars. Demand is steady and relationship-driven, with repeat professional clients making up the majority of revenue. Competition is primarily large full-service rental companies; we win business through specialized focus on linens, faster response, higher order accuracy, and a more personalized service experience for venue accounts.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Significant growth is available beyond the current foundation. The business has relied mainly on repeat professional accounts with limited marketing investment. Expansion opportunities include adding décor categories (draping, china, tablescapes), increasing networking and venue partnerships, improving SEO/local ads, and marketing direct-to-bride via wedding shows. Geographic growth is available in Topeka, Lawrence, Manhattan, and other nearby markets.
