Our customers range from large industrial laundries to small coin laundromats and include nationally recognized leaders in hospitality, healthcare and institutional laundries.
In 1963, Philip A. Costabile purchased a coin laundry called Mr. Phil's Coin-Ops in the city of Harrisburg. By 1965, Mr. Phil's Coin-Ops had grown to three coin-laundries, and the distribution company began selling coin-operated equipment. In 1966, Mr. Phil's expanded into the route operation (leasing coin laundry equipment to apartment complexes). Subsequently, a true family business evolved as the next generation of Costabiles became involved in the business.
In 1972, Philip F. Costabile, Rocco A. Costabile and Frank M. Costabile purchased Mr. Phil's Coin-Op and changed the name to PAC Industries, Inc. During the next ten years, PAC grew the route-op business as well as the distribution of quality laundry equipment. In 1985, the route-operation was sold to further the growth of the distribution business. Presently, PAC provides sales and services to the coin laundry industry, on-premise laundries (OPL), industrial laundries and drycleaning enterprises.
The company continues to have a steady and strong growth, which is directly related to its reputation of honesty and integrity in the laundry equipment industry. This reputation has rewarded PAC with its most valued asset, loyal and lasting customers.
