Martinizing Cleaners Celebrates Grand Opening in Mankato with Community Event on October 30

Longstanding Garment Care Franchise Brings Convenient Dry Cleaning, Laundry and Specialty Cleaning Services to the Mankato Community

MANKATO, Minn., Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Martinizing Cleaners, the longstanding garment care franchise known for making dry cleaning and laundry more convenient, will celebrate the grand opening of its new Mankato location on October 30. Located at 921 Madison Ave, Suite 103, the new location offers professional dry cleaning, laundry, alterations, household textile cleaning, gown preservation, shoe cleaning & repair, and professional wet cleaning, along with convenient pickup and delivery services.

Meet the Local Franchise Owner:
The new Martinizing Cleaners is owned and operated by Stephanie Miller, who moved to Mankato with her husband, Scott, almost three years ago. After spending 13 years in the staffing industry and building a career in IT and executive leadership, Miller began exploring opportunities to start a business of her own. She was drawn to Martinizing by the opportunity to provide high-quality garment care alongside convenient services designed to make customers' lives easier.

The Mankato location offers pickup and delivery services as well as a 24-hour drop box, giving customers more flexibility to fit garment care into their schedules. Customers also have access to an alterations specialist, wash-dry-fold laundry services and specialty care for items ranging from household textiles to wedding gowns.

"I'm incredibly proud of the quality of work our team has produced in such a short period of time and the care they put into every item that comes through our doors," said Stephanie. "Whether someone is trusting us with their everyday laundry, a favorite piece of clothing or something as meaningful as a wedding gown, we want them to know it will be treated with the same level of attention and care."

To celebrate the Mankato location's launch, Stephanie will host a grand opening celebration on October 30. The community is invited to visit the store, meet the local team and take part in festivities including a ribbon cutting ceremony with Greater Mankato Growth and a prize wheel. Additional activities are also being planned for the celebration.

Convenient, Environmentally Conscious Garment Care:
Martinizing uses GreenEarth® Cleaning, an environmentally non-toxic dry cleaning process designed to provide professional garment care without generating hazardous waste. The odor-free process is also gentler on fabrics than traditional dry-cleaning methods, helping extend the life of clothing while providing customers with a more environmentally conscious approach to garment care.

Martinizing Cleaners makes caring for your wardrobe and household items easy, with professional dry cleaning, laundry, alterations, comforter cleaning, leather care, wedding gown preservation, commercial services, and more.

Martinizing Cleaners in Mankato is open Monday-Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. and Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. For more information on Martinizing Cleaners in Mankato, please visit https://martinizing.com/mankato or call (507) 594-9143.
