Alliance Laundry Systems manufactures products under the brands Speed Queen,[2][3][4] Cissell, Huebsch, IPSO, and UniMac. The company was founded in 1908 and is based in Ripon, Wisconsin.[5]

History

The company began in the early 20th century with the introduction of a hand-operated washer to the marketplace. The Speed Queen brand with the introduction of stainless steel wash tubs in 1938 and automatic washers and dryers in 1952.[6]

Alliance was acquired by Raytheon Corporation in 1979. In February 1998, private equity firm Bain Capital agreed to acquire the commercial laundry business from Raytheon for $358 million.[7][8][9][10]

In January 2005, Teachers' Private Capital, the private equity affiliate of the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan acquired the majority of the equity interests of Alliance Laundry for $450 million.[11][12][13]

In 2009, the Alliance Laundry Systems University (ALSU) was founded as a corporate university available online to authorized Alliance Laundry Systems distributors, route operators and customers.[14]

In March 2014, the Alliance Laundry acquired Primus Laundry Equipment headquartered in Gullegem, Belgium for approx. $259.4 million.[15][16][17]

In April 2015, it was reported that Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan was planning to sell Alliance Laundry or issue an IPO, valuing the business at $1.8 billion.[18][19] Later in 2015, a majority stake was sold to BDT Capital Partners.[20]
