Ziker Cleaners, a trusted name in garment care for over a century, is proud to announce their expansion into downtown St. Joseph. A ribbon cutting ceremony will be held on Tuesday, June 17, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. at 425 State Street, and the public is invited to join local leaders, customers, and the Ziker team to celebrate the occasion.
With 108 years of local ownership and industry-leading innovation, Ziker Cleaners brings its legacy of quality service and community commitment to the St. Joseph market. The company saw an ideal opportunity to expand into the area when the community’s long-standing dry cleaner Sanitary Cleaners retired—making way for a seamless transition that preserved local jobs and continued a tradition of garment care excellence.
Arthur Havlicek, President & CEO of the Southwest Michigan Regional Chamber, shared his enthusiasm for Ziker’s arrival, “Ziker Cleaners is a company that brings not only deep expertise, but also a genuine passion for serving communities. Their investment in St. Joseph preserves essential local services, supports our workforce, and reinforces the vibrant mix of businesses that make our downtown special. We’re thrilled to welcome them to the neighborhood.”
“We’ve always admired the energy and charm of St. Joseph,” said Jennifer Probst, Store Sales & Service Director. “When the opportunity arose to serve this incredible community, we jumped at the chance. We’re excited to bring our Lightning Fast, Ziker Fresh service to the residents and businesses of St. Joe.”
Ziker’s new location offers a comprehensive suite of services, including:
- Expert Dry Cleaning
- Shirt Service
- Care for Household Items like comforters and tablecloths
- Convenient Wash, Dry, and Fold Laundry
- Wedding Gown Cleaning & Preservation
- Alterations and Repairs
With a leadership team boasting 132 years of combined experience, customers can expect top-tier service rooted in tradition and driven by innovation.
Probst adds, "We’re thrilled to join the St. Joseph community and bring over a century of experience to this vibrant city. With our trusted team and commitment to fast, fresh service, Ziker is here to make life a little easier—one garment at a time."
Ziker invites the public to attend the ribbon cutting celebration and experience what has made them a household name for over a century. Light refreshments will be provided, and team members will be on hand to share more about the company’s services and commitment to the St. Joseph community.
