| Cincinnati, OH. – Do you own or operate an establishment with a restroom that gives guests more than one good reason to “Go”? Are you the creative mind behind a public restroom designed or customized to integrate function with fashion or to bring personality into a space where you least expect to see it? Maybe you’re the client or customer who appreciates a clean, well-maintained and tastefully designed washroom? | ||||||||||
| We need your help finding the best loo in the land! Nominate a deserving washroom online today at www.bestrestroom.com. Ten finalists will be announced in August, at which time online voting will begin. The winner and runner-up will be revealed this fall and top vote-getters will secure a place in Cintas’ America’s Best Restroom® Contest Hall of Fame. | ||||||||||
| Worthy nominees will compete for a chance to be crowned 2012 King of the Throne in the 11th annual Cintas’ America’s Best Restroom® Contest and revealed during a nationally publicized media event this fall. | ||||||||||
| The contest is open to any non-residential restroom in the U.S. that is accessible to the general public. Entries will be judged on cleanliness, visual appeal, innovation, functionality and unique design elements. | ||||||||||
| Cintas launched the America’s Best Restroom® Contest more than a decade ago to recognize establishments that place high value on hygiene and style in their public restrooms. “The condition of the restrooms in a restaurant, hotel or other public facility undoubtedly influences a customer’s overall experience,” said John Engel, Cintas Senior Marketing Manager. | ||||||||||
| “Participating in this contest was a great opportunity for us. If you have a restroom that you’re proud of it’s time to show it to the nation!” said Mark Mustacchio, Vice President of Don’s Johns Inc., a top 5 finalists in last year’s contest. “This contest not only creates national visibility of your venue or company, it creates pride in the work you put into your restrooms and sanitation. A contest like this shows your customers that you truly care about their experience,” Mustacchio adds. | ||||||||||
| Past winners and finalists, along with existing Cintas customers, recognize the correlation between clean restrooms and customer satisfaction and retention. “Cintas’ America’s Best Restroom® Contest salutes business owners who invest in the upkeep of their facilities because they know it makes smart business sense,” Engel said. | ||||||||||
| Chicago’s famous Field Museum gained national media attention for its spacious and family-friendly restroom design, taking first place in the 2011 contest. “It’s certainly had a positive effect on our staff, which in the end, affects business,” said Emily Waldren, who manages public relations for the Field Museum. “Our housekeeping and facilities staff are certainly the unsung heroes of the Museum, and this recognition was exciting for them–increasing morale. I believe that shows in their continued work,” Waldren said. | ||||||||||
