Sedlak Management
Consultants
Delivering remarkable experience
The next time you pick up your dry cleaning, you will
likely notice that once you’ve handed in your ticket,
the attendant will punch in a number, and your freshly-
pressed and wrapped garment will arrive at the front
desk via an overhead rail system. It’s a great way to
move your clothing about the facility quickly and effi-
ciently without taking up an abundance of floor space.
About 60 years ago, Joseph Sedlak, the founder of
Sedlak Management Consultants, saw the possibili-
ties inherent in what was, at the time, a very leading-
edge technology, and convinced his boss, Maurie Salz-
man, the CEO of Bobbie Brooks, a lady’s ready-to-wear
manufacturing firm, that such an overhead garment
rail system would work well in his distribution center.
