Originally known as Mothers Cleaners, Bill Wright purchased the company in 1999 and renamed it Royal Fine Cleaners. Quickly, the business grew to serve not only Tuscaloosa and Northport, but also the areas of west Alabama, and central Mississippi. Royal Fine Cleaners also expanded with investments in new equipment, technologies and services including mobile “on-site” cleaning of drapes and upholstery. Royal Fine Cleaners is the only certified leather and suede specialist in the Northport/Tuscaloosa area and the only member of the Association of Wedding Gown Specialists in the entire state of Alabama. Royal Fine boasts of a fully computerized facility with the integration of bar codes and RFID technologies and systems integrated with their Metalprogetti Converyor System. Bill further expanded Royal Fine Cleaners services to include Restoration Services in 2001. Today Royal Fine Cleaners continues to be one of Alabama’s leading retail dry cleaners.

Now as a FRSTeam Licensee, this new fabric restoration company, FRSTeam by Royal Fine Cleaners, will be creating it’s own remarkable story. “FRSTeam brings a bonafide, credible service structure to a historically fragmented market”, said Bill, “we liked the vision that the FRSTeam organization brings to the national marketplace for restoration services”. Courtney Nicholas, CEO of FRSTeam said, “FRSTeam by Royal Fine Cleaners, Bill and his restoration company are perfect for our team!”Jim Nicholas, President of FRSTeam said, “FRSTeam by Royal Fine Cleaners is highly positioned in their market, the combination of a national brand with their high quality local service should yield great results”. After completing training in the California Corporate Office, Bill Wright returned to Northport to get the FRSTeam operation started. “Bill has all the drive and experience, along with the tools and support needed to succeed in this business,” continued Courtney.
