In 1900, Canie Brown founded a laundry business in Asheville, North Carolina. His ambition was to provide the best laundry service available anywhere. In 1961, Mr. Brown was succeeded by his son-in-law, Bretney Smith. Mr. Smith's son, Bretney Smith Jr., took over the business in 1977. After 40 years at the helm Bretney handed the reins over to his daughter Stacy Smith making her the fourth generation of the family to operate the company. Since, Stacy has retired. Today, Marvin Thomas, a second generation cleaner himself, operates the firm.

We're masters at professionally cleaning leather garments. Perspiration, perfume and smoke can damage your garments and jeopardize your investment. We encourage at least annual cleaning of your valuable leather garments. We clean handbags, luggage, belts and portfolios, giving the same care and attention to all your leather. Remember: when it comes to performance, we put our best foot forward for you! I can't say enough about the excellent service and very friendly staff at Swannanoa Cleaners East.
