U.S. Dry Cleaning CEO Appears on Fox Business News

Business Wire,  June 4, 2008  

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. -- Robbie Lee, founder and CEO of the nation's fastest-growing publicly-held dry cleaning chain, U.S. Dry Cleaning (OTCBB:UDRY), said on Fox Business News that the company continues to maintain its very rapid growth rate. In the interview Mr. Lee discussed the explosive growth of U.S. Dry Cleaning and how it compares to that early year growth of nationally-recognized chains such as Starbucks and Staples. U.S. Dry Cleaning has a unique benefit of "no need to maintain inventories." According to Lee, this helps to reduce costs as the chain expands throughout the U.S. The full interview can be viewed at: http://www.foxbusiness.com/video/index.html?playerId=videolandingpage& streamingFormat=FLASH&referralObject=1048704&referralPlaylistId=search |robbie%20lee&maven_referrer=staf (Due to its length, this URL may need to be copied/pasted into your Internet browser's address field.
