SPARTA, Ky. – A multi-year entitlement sponsorship was announced today by Kentucky Speedway and Alsco for the speedway’s Friday, July 8 NASCAR XFINITY Series race.
Alsco is a worldwide leader in the rental of linen, uniforms, healthcare garments, and washroom products. The family-run business introduced linen and uniform rental services to the world in 1889.
“Alsco is a market leader with a strong knowledge of the motorsports business and how to maximize sports sponsorships. We cannot be more proud to work with this outstanding company as we bring Alsco quality and creativity to race fans,” said General Manager of Kentucky Speedway Mark Simendinger.
