A new industrial laundry opens in Belle-Ile

Johan Dubourdieu created Belle-Ile Blanc a year ago with the goal to develop the first industrial laundry of the region. The laundry is developed on a modern facility of 550 m2, in operation since June 4. The total investment for this project was 1.6 million euros. In high season, its workforce is expected to reach a dozen employees; at the moment, the facility houses five washers with a capacity of 25 to 60 kg and three clothes dryers with a capacity of 40 to 60 kg.

Until now, the linen of the big establishments of the island was shipped by boat, and then by truck. With the new laundry all textile care will be delivered on the spot, a process reducing costs and minimizing the environmental footprint.
