25+ years of quality textile care

Fornet International B.V. is founded by Leon Wennekes as a corporate startup to explore internationalisation of Fornet (1900+ shops), an award winning textile care brand with 25+ years experience. A flagship store was launched in the summer of 2022 in the center of the innovative business district of Amsterdam.

At Fornet we are committed to ‘professional service, reasonably priced’. Our value proposition is simple: we offer a better way to take care of clothes through state of the art cleaning and repair services. That means we stimulate the textile industry to become circular while our customers can enjoy life and look good while doing it. Besides our shop we service Amsterdam citizens 6 days per week @home or @work with our e-bike delivery service. Orders are returned in 48 hours.
