Distributor Advantage Equipment Triples Size of HQ

13,000-square-foot building houses product showroom, all operations

AKRON, Ohio — Laundry equipment distributor Advantage Equipment Inc. reports it recently moved into a new facility here. The 13,000-square-foot building at 1056 Home Ave. triples the size of the company’s current headquarters.

Advantage Equipment, in its 20th year of business, caters to vended, on-premises and industrial laundry customers throughout West Virginia and large portions of Ohio and Pennsylvania.

Owner Scott Vlahos says his company has “experienced significant growth in sales and product offerings” and needed space to add staff and services after outgrowing its former location.

The new facility features a product showroom and houses all office, parts, service and warehouse operations for the company.

“Our team works hard to provide exceptional service and nurture long-lasting friendships with our customers,” Vlahos says. “Our new facility will help us to grow, and simultaneously, more quickly respond to customer needs.”

Advantage Equipment provides multiple equipment lines, including Continental Girbau, Hamilton, ADC, Ram Air, LG and Sports Laundry Systems®. Additionally, the company supplies chemical products and ancillary laundry items.
