Although he was always looking to improve his family prospects, he knew the steady income provided all the essentials for his wife and five children. As fate would have it, 1975 is also the year Carlos Jr. (Charlie) would begin working for Hourglass Cleaners. Charlie learned the dry cleaning business quickly and spoke of it often at home. By 1976 when the owners of our glass cleaners were looking
to scale back, Carlos Sr. and Charlie made an offer on their 15th Street dry cleaning plant. It was accepted and another family was taking their first steps on the journey towards the “American dream.”
Settling on a name would be easy, Carlos Sr. to whom family meant everything chose Nesty Cleaners, in honor of his son Nestor whom the family had recently lost. As time went on, all the children worked at Nesty Cleaners at one time or another. By 1980 a few changes were in store for Nesty. First Jorge joined his father and brother in the family business. Secondly, the store and dry cleaning plant moved to its current location at 518 Park Avenue in the Eastside section of Paterson, NJ
Nesty Cleaners has become a fixture in the neighborhood since then and an anchor of the small business district on Park Avenue. Many of our customers were first introduced to us as children and as they grow so have we. Change continues at Nesty, with the advent of vast and new technologies such as a fully organic, eco-friendly dry cleaning system that reduces our carbon footprint. and Charlie have gone on to other ventures, but Jorge is still here and waiting for you to stop in, share a joke or two.
