1.   The consolidated financial statements included herein, except for the

     Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included

     the changes in financial position for the three and six month periods then
     ended.

     The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 to

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS

REVENUES

     Rental revenues from rentals and services totaled $83,583,000 and
$72,806,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 and 1996 respectively, and
$163,596,000 and $141,711,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1997 and 1996
respectively. Revenues for G&K's U.S. rental operations grew at 14.8% rate for
the second quarter and 15.9% for the first six months of fiscal 1997 when
compared with the same periods last year.  Increased new account sales,
expansion of existing accounts, selective price increases, new market entries,
and good customer retention rates helped  achieve this result.  Revenues for
Canadian rental operations increased at a 15.0% rate for the second quarter and
13.1% rate for the first six months of fiscal 1997 compared to the same periods
last year.  Revenues in Canadian dollars increased 14.6% for the second quarter
and 13.5% for the first six months when compared to the same periods last year.
There were no significant changes in product mix or selling prices during the
first six months fiscal 1997.

     Revenues from direct sales totaled $3,855,000 and $2,282,000 for the second
quarter fiscal 1997 and 1996 respectively. Revenues from direct sales totaled
$7,152,000 and $4,331,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1997 and 1996
respectively. Increase in direct sales is due to higher U.S. manufacturing
division external revenues which utilize our manufacturing capacities above
internal needs.

EXPENSES

     Cost of rental operations  totaled $45,748,000 and $41,212,000 representing
54.7% and 56.6% of revenues from rental operations for the second quarter fiscal
1997 and 1996 respectively, and $89,230,000 and $80,125,000 representing 54.5%
and 56.5% of revenues for rental operations for the first six months of fiscal
1997 and 1996 respectively.  These improvements are a result of decreased
production and merchandise costs that come from efficiencies gained in the
rental operations and manufacturing of rental garments.

     Costs of  direct sales were $5,582,000 and  $3,304,000 representing 78.0%
and 76.3%  of direct sales for the first six months of fiscal 1997 and 1996
respectively. The increase in cost of direct sales as a percent of revenues is
due to reduced gross margins on outside sales.

     Selling and administrative expenses were $20,018,000 and $15,820,000
representing 22.9% and 21.1% of revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 1997
and 1996 respectively,  and  $39,425,000 and $31,233,000 representing 23.1% and
21.4% of revenues for  six months ended fiscal 1997 and 1996 respectively. The
increase is primarily from  sales, marketing and training costs from continued
development and maintenance of projects that maximize our continued internal
sales growth rates, as well as the addition of new locations.

     Depreciation expense equaled $4,845,000 and $4,393,000, for the second
quarter of fiscal 1997 and 1996 respectively. Depreciation totaled  $9,441,000
and  $8,437,000 for six months ended fiscal 1997 and 1996 respectively. The
increase in depreciation of 10.3% and 11.9% respectively, is the result of
investment of capital into new and existing locations.

<PAGE>


     Interest expense of $3,268,000 decreased 24.6% in the first six months of
fiscal 1997 when compared with the same period last year. The decrease is a
result of lower average borrowing levels and interest rates.

     Effective income tax rates were 39.2% and 39.1% in the first six months of
fiscal 1997 and 1996.

NET INCOME

     Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 totaled $7,186,000
representing a 28.9% increase compared with the same period in 1996. Net income
for six months of fiscal 1997 totaled $14,137,000 representing a 31.4% increase
compared with the same period in 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Cash flows from operating activities were $16,994,000 in the first six
months of fiscal 1997 compared with $12,890,000 in the same period last year.
The increase is primarily the result of higher net income before depreciation
and amortization, partially off-set  by growth in inventory and accounts
receivable.

     Net cash used for financing activities of $1,734,000 in the first six
months of fiscal 1997 included the repayment of senior notes payable of
$9,000,000 offset by additional borrowing on the long term line of credit.  Net
cash provided in the first six months of fiscal 1996 of $9,552,000 included a
payment on senior notes payable of $6,197,000 and additional borrowing on the
long term line of credit.

     Management believes that funds generated from operations and existing lines
of credit should provide adequate funding for current business operations and
debt service requirements.
