Star Distributing Celebrates 65 Years of Excellence

Star Distributing Commercial Laundry Equipment, Inc. proudly celebrated 65 years of excellence this year! With its headquarter nestled in the heart of Nashville, Tennessee, Star Distributing stands tall as a beacon of excellence in the world of commercial laundry equipment.

A Legacy of Leadership

Established in 1958 by Durwood R. Davis Jr., Star Distributing has a remarkable legacy that spans over six decades. The company proudly claims the title of the oldest commercial distributor in the southeast. A testament to its longevity, Star Distributing’s history is rich with milestones and achievements, and the firm has carved out a niche by consistently delivering unparalleled service and top-tier products.

A Full-Service Distributor

Offering a comprehensive range of services, Star Distributing boasts of sales, service, installation, and parts for commercial laundry equipment. They made history as the first distributor in the nation to feature full lines from heavyweights such as Speed Queen, Cissell, Maytag, Electrolux, and Wascomat. Today, their primary focus remains dedicated to the renowned Speed Queen brand.

Star Distributing Celebrating 65 Years of Excellence

With its roots in Tennessee, the company’s influence extends far beyond its home state. Star Distributing has successfully established over 5,000 laundry facilities scattered across Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, and Virginia.

Accolades & Recognitions

2021 was indeed a banner year for Star Distributing. At the 2022 Clean Show Exposition held in Atlanta, Georgia (the largest exposition in North America for laundering, dry cleaning, textile care services, supplies, and equipment), the company clinched not one, but two prestigious awards.

Michael Davis, the dynamic President and CEO of Star Distributing, gleamed with pride as the company received the Speed Queen’s Distributor of the Year award. Not stopping there, they also bagged the Speed Queen Finance Partner of the Year award. “We won the biggest award which is Distributor of the Year for Speed Queen, which is a very prestigious award,” said Davis.

Innovation and Expansion

The 1990s was a period of growth and expansion for Star Distributing. In 1995, the addition of Michael Davis’ Nashville office heralded a new era, widening the company’s territory for distribution business. And soon after, in a bid to further diversify and cater to the evolving needs of the industry, Davis launched PartsKing.com, the dedicated parts division of Star Distributing.

Celebrating the Past, Embracing the Future

As Star Distributing looks back it’s evident that its foundations are built on dedication, innovation, and quality. As they step into their 65th year, the future is bright and filled with promise.

Congratulations, Star Distributing, on Celebrates 65 Years of Excellence in Commercial Laundry Equipment! Here’s to many more years of continued success and innovation in the commercial laundry sector.
