A total of 19 UniFirst employees recently completed the company’s flagship, award-winning professional development program, the UniFirst Management Institute (UMI). These individuals were recognized during a graduation ceremony on September 30.
Developed to support the career progression of UniFirst field managers and general managers, UMI recruits high-potential employees from company locations throughout North America.
