EVI Industries to Acquire Aldrich Clean-Tech Equipment Corp.

EVI Industries, Inc. (NYSE American: EVI) announced today that it executed a definitive agreement to acquire Aldrich Clean-Tech Equipment Corp.

This acquisition expands EVI’s sales and service presence with the addition of eight (8) highly trained and specialized commercial laundry technicians and support staff that will enhance EVI’s capabilities to its growing customer base across the northeast region of the United States.
