                           99.1     Press Release dated January 27, 2004.

Item 12.          Disclosure of Results of Operations and Financial Condition

The information in this Item is furnished to, but not filed with, the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") solely under Item 12 of Form 8-K,
"Results of Operations and Financial Condition."

On January 27, 2004, G&K Services, Inc. issued a press release announcing its
financial results for the fiscal quarter ended December 27, 2003. A copy of the
press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated
herein by reference. The press release contains certain non-GAAP financial
measures, including the organic industrial rental growth rate and free cash
flow. The organic industrial rental growth rate is calculated using industrial
rental revenue adjusted for foreign currency exchange rate differences and
revenue from newly acquired locations compared to prior-period results.
Management believes that by eliminating the impact of the U.S.-Canadian exchange
rate and the effects of the Company's recent business acquisitions, the organic
industrial rental growth rate better reflects the growth of our existing
industrial business and is therefore useful in analyzing the financial condition
of the Company and the results of its operations. Free cash flow is cash
provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Management believes
that this is an important financial measure because it indicates the Company's
ability to expand, acquire additional business, pursue debt reduction and pay
dividends.
