Ben's Car Wash
Conveyor & self service
Ok, what have you heard? Business across the industry is so slow that a "major" manufacturer has "laidoff" employees from their factory. Has it hit the news anywhere else yet?
So can I rule out that it is not Ryko?Michigan supposedly has the worst econemy in the nation and our buisness is booming! Ryko is doing great too, I guess all of our hard work is paying off!
Ryko is not laying off people and in fact they have been hiring people (as we have in the carwash division of our company). I know of one person who used to post here quite a bit that was hired as a customer service rep. He used to work for Ryko before and was at Ryko purchasing some parts when the head of CS saw him and asked if he wanted a job. He does not post here as much now since he is helping people fix washes all day now and continuing this into the evening is not as appealing.So can I rule out that it is not Ryko?
John,Doug,
What is the point of your post? Are you fishing or are you playing some school yard gossip game?

Well, Doug, I've watched this post and was waiting to see where you were going with this. If you actually have a name and some "facts" you might give them to me and I would make the phone calls. I wouldn't say that I know everything that is going on in this industry but I do hear things and I make phone calls and people call me with different info. I've made a few phone calls and it appears that like our poll, there are areas of the country that are doing fine and some that aren't doing great and believe it or not there are some people that you could give a million dollars to and within a short time they would be broke bitching about how terrible the world was.
Do you know if he is selling any of his smaller sites, like the one in Rockford? The other one is too big for me.Ryko-Pro,
The "Carlovers" carwash chain is a seperate business that Jeff Anderson owns that is not affiliated with GinSan/IVS in anyway.
Bill,
Thank you for the Sonny's input. They are exactly right. We have spent alot of time stream lining our production systems and we also are operating with less but have cut our lead times in half!
