As the industry leader, Cintas was ... still intent on growing and consolidating. In 2002, the company spent $22 million to acquire certain portions of the uniform manufacturing and marketing division of the Missouri-based laundry company Angelica Corp. One month after the Angelica sale was completed, Cintas announced it had bought out Omni Services, Inc., in what was its largest acquisition, surpassing the Unitog deal of two years earlier. Omni Services, of Culpepper, Virginia, was owned by the French company Filuxel, S.A., and it had apparently suggested the merger. Omni had annual sales of around $300 million, with 90,000 customers in over 30 states. The merger was expected to bump Cintas's sales to around $2.5 billion, and it would clearly continue to lead the industry over the next several years.
