Martinizing Cleaners Fortifies Its Presence in the Charlotte Metropolitan Area

The company is owned and operated by the Marlowe family, namely Rachel and Lane. Rachel took over the family business from her late father, Randy Lambeth, in 2021, and this expansion now marks her third store in the area.

The store is located in Cornelius. The owners and staff will provide residents in the north Charlotte area with standard garment care services, including dry cleaning and laundry, as well as pickup and delivery to customers' doorsteps. Hours are 8:00 AM–6:00 PM on weekdays, and 10:00 AM–2:00 PM on Saturdays.

Since 2007, Martinizing has served the northern Charlotte metro area, with additional locations in nearby towns.

“We’re already very familiar with Cornelius and its residents,” said Rachel. “From our philanthropy efforts with Davidson College to the lifelong friendships we’ve built growing up nearby, and the relationships we’ve developed through our business, we feel very at home here. Opening a store in Cornelius was the perfect opportunity for us to deepen our connections in the community, while also continuing to fortify our family’s legacy.”

“We truly love what we do,” said Rachel. “I’ve already embraced the opportunity to spend time at our new store and become familiar with its existing customers and staff. I believe that face-time is critical to building trust, and in this business, trust is everything. We’re as homegrown as it gets, and I want our Cornelius customers to feel safe knowing that they’re in good hands.”
