K-Bro Linen Inc. (TSX: KBL) owns and operates laundry and linen processing facilities, providing comprehensive general linen and operating room linen processing, management and distribution services to healthcare institutions, hotels and other commercial accounts; linen rental, workwear hire and cleanroom garment services to hospitality, healthcare, manufacturing and pharmaceutical sectors; and high-quality laundry services to independent hospitality businesses including hotels, B&Bs, self-catering units and restaurants. The company operates under brands including K-Bro Linen Systems Inc. and Buanderie HMR, with ten processing facilities and two distribution centres across ten Canadian cities such as Québec City, Montréal, Toronto, Regina, Saskatoon, Prince Albert, Edmonton, Calgary, Vancouver and Victoria; Fishers with five sites in Scotland and the North of England including Perth, Newcastle, Livingston, Coatbridge and Prestonhall; and Shortridge facilities in Cumbria, Dumfries and a distribution depot in Darlington. Founded in 1954 and headquartered in Edmonton, Alberta, K-Bro serves customers across Canada, Scotland and the North of England with state-of-the-art facilities featuring continuous batch washers, automated systems, energy-efficient technologies and surgical linen pack rooms to ensure year-round reliability, superior hygiene and sustainability. In May 2025, K-Bro completed its largest acquisition to date with the £107 million purchase of U.K.-based Star Mayan Limited from STAR Capital Partnership LLP, creating a top-three national laundry platform in the U.K. that enhances its coast-to-coast geographic footprint, boosts combined U.K. market share to approximately 10% in the £1.6 billion commercial laundry and textile rental market, and diversifies revenue through balanced healthcare and hospitality exposure when combined with existing U.K. operations Fishers and Shortridge; the company also acquired Shortridge in 2024 to expand hospitality services in northwest England. K-Bro employs over 3,200 people and maintains a disciplined growth strategy emphasizing customers, operations, sustainability and profitability.
