RIPON, Wis. — Commercial laundry equipment manufacturer Alliance Laundry Systems has tapped Eric Meyers to lead its North America laundromat/on-premises laundry segment as general manager, the company reports.

“Eric’s track record of success and communication skills make him a perfect fit for leading the sales organization we are building,” says Craig Dakauskas, senior vice president, North America Commercial for Alliance Laundry Systems. “I’m excited to watch him guide this team to next-level success.”

“I’m humbled to be given this opportunity... it doesn’t get any better than this,” Meyers says of joining the manufacturer whose brands include Speed Queen, Huebsch and UniMac. “I’m excited to begin building relationships with our valued distributor partners and end customers.”
