GAFFNEY, S.C. (February 10, 2010) – After a limited involvement last season, G&K Services has returned to JD Motorsports with Mike Wallace driving the No. 01 Chevrolet beginning with the season-opening race at Daytona International Speedway.
Based in Minneapolis, Minnesota; the uniform company has improved their association with the NASCAR Nationwide Series team by signing on as a primary marketing partner for six races this season. After the 300-mile race in Daytona on February 19, they will be on board for the Auto Club Speedway event in Fontana, Calif. The other primary races will be determined based on their sales regions.
“This is a great testament how a company can benefit from an association with our team,” said Johnny Davis, owner of JD Motorsports. “G&K Services were on board for a few races last year, and we’re happy to have them with us again this year. They decided to invest in more races this year based off the results they saw.
“This just proves how an affordable marketing plan can be beneficial in our series. Like everyone else, we’re still looking for more primary and associate partners. As a team, we’re very happy to have them on board again; especially for the Daytona race. Now, it’s up to Mike (Wallace) and Brad (Parrott, crew chief) to give G&K Services a good showing.” About G&K Services Founded in 1902 by Alexander and Morris Gross in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota, G&K Services today has nearly 8,000 employees throughout North America and processes more than five million garments each week from more than 160 locations. www.gkservices.com
