Ecotex purchases Mohawk Medbuy Linen Services
On March 1, 2024, Ecotex Healthcare Linen Service LP (”Ecotex”) completed its previously announced acquisition of the Linen Services division of Mohawk Medbuy Corporation (“MMC”).
The sale, announced January 12, 2024, follows a competitive process initiated by MMC, facilitated by a third-party and conducted in collaboration with MMC members. At the outset, MMC established criteria to ensure continued employment for its Hamilton-based employees and long-term service commitments to the hospitals and other customers it supports. For hospitals currently served by MMC, Ecotex brings a new level of scale and resources. Based on the company’s expertise and strong track record within health care, the selection of Ecotex was firmly endorsed by all the hospitals currently served by MMC’s linen operations.
Implementing a transition phase to ensure a seamless service, the hand-off was made on February 29, 2024.
