Fishers is a market leader in laundry, textile rental, and industrial workwear, primarily operating in Scotland and the North East of England. The company serves a diverse client base, ranging from independent restaurants and local B&Bs to major hotel chains, including Premier Inn, and prominent event venues such as Edinburgh’s International Conference Centre. With a capacity to clean, iron, and deliver over two million items weekly, Fishers ensures a consistent supply of fresh linens, luxurious towels, and neatly pressed uniforms to hospitality establishments throughout the country.
The innovation-driven company is at the forefront of RFID technology, offering a proprietary bedlinen range, Fishers ZHEN, embedded with RFID for enhanced textile tracking and unique customer insights. In late 2017, the company was acquired by K-Bro Inc., the largest laundry and linen service provider in Canada, positioning Fishers for further growth and diversification.
With a history dating back to 1900, Fishers has continued to evolve and maintain its industry leadership. The most recent investment, a Private Equity Round in November 2007, was led by Caird Capital, underscoring investor confidence in Fishers’ strategic direction and growth potential.
