About​

established in 2021​

Few industries are a greater source of frustration for the restaurant manager than the linen rental industry. Most restaurants use a linen rental company, but remarkably few consider their linen company a trusted ally and valued partner. We are here to help with that.

Complete Linen Consultants was founded by Christopher Hermanns to address a very specific need in the restaurant and hospitality world. The former president of W.H. Linen Rental, his expertise is well-established. As a former linen industry insider, he is uniquely positioned to analyze your linen costs, identify areas of waste and opportunities for savings, work directly with your current linen company on areas of quality, rejected linen, invoicing and contract terms, and if necessary interview other companies on your behalf.

Christopher is also expert in designing and sourcing high-end and bespoke linens for your dining room. CLC works directly with textile mills in Italy and France to produce exactly what you need to create the look you want. With W.H. Linen, Christopher has designed and sourced linens for Eleven Madison Park, Per Se, Marea, The NoMad Hotel, and many more. Whether you want something elegant, rustic, colorful or just different, CLC can help.

Mission

To help restaurants make the statement they wish, and keep their costs in line, and free managers to do the difficult work of running their restaurants.

Vision

That linen rental does not have to be a “necessary evil” and that restaurant linens do not have to be “off the rack” or unpleasant to the touch, and shouldn’t compromise your guest experience.
