Meet the Business Owner

Sarno M.

Business Owner

In 1940, Ralph Sarno founded Sarno’s as a custom tailor shop. Years later, he handed the business over to his son Larry. In the late 1950’s, tuxedo sales and rentals became Sarno and Sons’ main business, and by the late 1960’s Larry had built a chain of 11 stores.

In 1978, Larry’s son Mark, joined the company full time. He had an integral role in modernizing the warehouse, delivery systems and computer inventory control systems. By 1986, Larry’s daughter Nancy, joined the team. Her focus within the company has been in marketing and customer relations.

In 1996, Sarno & Son moved the business two blocks down the street from where Ralph first opened his custom tailor shop. The new facility offered the opportunity to increase dry cleaning capacity and improve production. 1997 brought on further expansion, adding a sub-​warehouse for distribution to Northern Virginia and Washington D.C. In 2002, Sarno & Son began work on a 23,000 square foot expansion to the warehouse
