Programs Cover Shoe Repair, Sustainability, Subscriptions and Social Media
The Drycleaning & Laundry Institute continues offering educational programs and networking opportunities. “As business continues to improve, members are busier and have less time to spend online,” said Mary Scalco, DLI’s CEO. “Our goal, as always, is to give members more value than the cost of membership. DLI will continue sharing educational and networking opportunities on a weekly basis. We are focused on helping members communicate and grow,” she said.
