Alpha Laundry
The Challenge
Alpha Laundry is a family-run laundry, dry cleaning and alteration specialist based in Far Cotton, Northampton. Founded in 1988, the business has been a cornerstone of the local community for over 35 years.
Despite their excellent reputation, their existing Wix website failed to reflect the premium quality of their work. The site suffered from slow load times, poor mobile experience, and limited SEO visibility.
