BROKEN ARROW, Okla. — Wash-Dry-Fold POS, a provider of practical point-of-sale and management software for the laundry industry, reports it is transitioning from an LLC to a corporation, and that company veteran Ian Gollahon has been appointed CEO.
“It’s a privilege to serve our customers and lead our small team,” says Gollahon. “Kindness, focus and gratitude will be constants at every layer of value that we deliver.”
Having previously served as a key leader in Wash-Dry-Fold POS’ growth from its early stages, he has been instrumental in the brand’s evolution. Gollahon was a primary architect of the company’s 2020 shift to cloud-based software subscriptions and has personally managed its sales and software development teams.
Under his leadership, Wash-Dry-Fold POS has grown to serve approximately 20% of the current U.S. laundromat point-of-sale market, the company says.
As part of the transition, founder and Chief Technology Officer Brian Henderson has been appointed chairman of the board and remains the majority shareholder, providing continuity as the company enters its next stage of growth.
“For a decade, Ian has been the definitive steward of our brand,” says Henderson. “From securing our intellectual property to navigating complex vendor relations and marketing strategies, he possesses a rare blend of financial sophistication and operational grit.”
A distinguishing factor of the company’s leadership is its direct industry involvement. Gollahon became a laundromat owner himself in 2023 when partnering with Henderson to purchase the Henderson family’s chain of laundromats in Oklahoma.
Liberty Laundry, serving as a real-world testing ground for Wash-Dry-Fold POS software, grossed $2.5 million in top-line revenue in 2025 across its three locations, the company says. This “owner-to-owner” perspective helps ensure the software remains grounded in the daily realities of running a successful laundromat.
Wash-Dry-Fold POS reports it experienced its strongest first quarter in company history this year and that the move to incorporate further signals an increased focus on growth and reinvestment.
