MIAMI — Laundry equipment distributor Steiner-Atlantic Corp. has added industry veteran Robert Gonzalez to its staff as vice president of its Coin Laundry Division, the company reports.
Gonzalez specializes in training and helping his customers successfully learn to operate their business, save on overhead expenses and maximize revenues, Steiner-Atlantic says.
He began his coin laundry career in 1978 with AmeriVend, working in the warehouse before becoming a service technician. Soon thereafter, he established his own business servicing coin laundries and hotels until he was offered an opportunity to manage operations at Statewide Laundry.
Over eight years, Gonzalez escalated that company’s sales and service until it became the top-producing Speed Queen and Continental distributor in the region, Steiner-Atlantic reports. After Statewide was sold, he worked briefly for Sandy Hark Boilers, then helped established Worldwide Laundry Equipment in Doral, Fla.
Gonzalez has been a hands-on operator for many years, owning and managing several laundries.
