FreshFold Laundry Route Margin Reset

FreshFold Laundry runs 41 neighborhood stores across Maryland and Delaware. Wash-cycle volume rose 6% last year, yet operating profit fell from $6.5 million to $4.4 million. The founder wants to separate store utility inflation from losses in new commercial pickup routes and identify two actions that can restore at least $1.7 million of annual profit within a year.
