Thunder Bay Welcomes Back Dry Cleaning with Quality Cleaners
After 80 years of operation, Supreme Cleaners, the last dry cleaner in Thunder Bay, Ontario Canada closed their doors in August of 2022. With a population of over 110,000 people, residents had to get creative with their garment care. Where some saw a challenge, others saw opportunity. Enter GreenEarth Affiliate, Quality Cleaners.
Recognizing the demand and potential, the group made the strategic decision to outsource their cleaning to an existing GreenEarth Affiliate located in Sault Ste. Marie (more than 700 kilometers away), while embarking on the buildout of their own plant. Their investment in GreenEarth technology has made them the first ever environmentally non-toxic dry cleaner in Thunder Bay. The group’s dedication and forward-thinking approach not only brought a much-needed service back to Thunder Bay, but also set a new standard for dry cleaning in the region.
Quality cleaners has successfully closed a market gap and established themselves as a staple service spot in the community. With a thriving business and a commitment to sustainability, they are looking towards the future with confidence and optimism. This new chapter for Thunder Bay’s dry cleaning industry is a testament to innovation, resilience, and the ability to turn challenges into successful ventures.

GreenEarth Cleaning's New Partnership with Karen Millen
Iconic brand, Karen Millen has taken a significant step in supporting sustainable fashion by recommending GreenEarth Cleaning on their website. At GreenEarth Cleaning, we are committed to fostering deeper engagement with all parties within the fashion supply chain. Our goal has always been to feature our logo on care labels with a QR code linking to our global store locator, alongside a recommendation to visit our global Affiliate network. Additionally, we create educational content for both brand employees and customers.
Our approach has not just been about the present but also about the future. Years ago we adopted a long-term strategic approach of collaborating with emerging talent in colleges, fabric testing houses, garment labeling companies, and manufacturers. This comprehensive strategy has successfully produced recommendations across many brands, as GreenEarth’s commitment to quality garment care using reduced energy and environmentally non-toxic pure liquid silicone resonates more with consumers every year.
Our efforts have led to one of our most successful periods, highlighted by the fantastic endorsement from Karen Millen. We are excited about these achievements and look forward to continued growth and collaboration within the fashion industry.
