NEW ORLEANS — The owners of Rich’s Wash Dat car wash will host a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 9 a.m. on Monday, May 9 to celebrate a new location at 2900 Gentilly Boulevard.
Owner Dennis Ogan said he invested $5.5 million in upgrading a vacant site that was formerly a gas station. He said the new location creates 12 new jobs and brings the company’s total number of employees to 67.
