Workplace services uniform and facility revenue growth measures the reported year-over-year change in revenue from uniform rental and facility service operations.

Cintas reported 9.7% Uniform Rental and Facility Services revenue growth in its fiscal 2027 first quarter. UniFirst reported 3.9% Uniform & Facility Service Solutions revenue growth for the thirteen weeks ended May 30, 2026.

Reported growth includes more than the existing customer base

Acquisitions, foreign exchange, calendar differences, price, new customer wins, cross-selling, retention, and lost business can all affect reported growth.

That makes the metric useful for total segment expansion but less clean as a like-for-like demand measure.

Compare reported growth with the organic bridge

Uniform and facility organic revenue growth removes specified non-organic effects under each issuer's methodology.

Read both with uniform and facility revenue mix to understand how core route-service growth affects consolidated revenue.
