Currently, the franchise is an integral part modern business. This is an agreement that is concluded between the franchisor (trade group) and the franchisee (businessman). Thanks to this, you can use the company’s brand to develop your own enterprise.
Another question for beginning businessmen is which field to choose. One of the most popular options right now is opening your own dry cleaner. This is not surprising, since the services provided by this company are very popular among all segments of the population. As a result, such a business, if given enough attention, can bring good profits.
Such a business can be opened in completely different ways:
- Opening of a receiving point. An entrepreneur opens only a collection point for things, but the services are provided by a large organization that has the necessary equipment.
- Opening your own small business, which provides a full range of services (reception, cleaning and delivery). It should be noted right away that such an establishment implies quite large investments both in the development of the process and in advertising.
- And the most profitable option is to open a small dry cleaner by purchasing a franchise from a large enterprise. As a result of this, all the difficulties and problems in organizing and running a business will fall on the shoulders of the franchisor, and the owner of the establishment will have to take into account certain requirements according to the contract.
As we can see, each of the 3 methods has certain features. An entrepreneur must choose the most appropriate development path based on his experience and ambitions. By the way, according to statistics, more than 80% of entrepreneurs fail in the first year of work. 16% close their business in the first five years. What is the result? Only 4% of successful businessmen.
However, the situation is completely different among entrepreneurs who work as a franchise. Among them, almost 90% work successfully and cope with the laws of the market. An additional advantage is that the franchise system is resistant to crises of various kinds, including economic ones.
Benefits from cooperation
Franchising is a certain type of business in which an entrepreneur acquires a franchise by concluding an appropriate agreement with a large organization. Then a clothing collection point is opened (of course, this is necessary in advance). The franchisor will be a very important assistant for a beginning entrepreneur, as he will help resolve a number of issues:
- Preparation of required documents.
- Selection of qualified personnel.
We should also not forget that a businessman will have to work under the brand of a large company that is well known to customers. In this regard, the costs of advertising and production promotion are minimized.
For his part, the dry cleaning owner will make deductions from his income, make an entrance fee and other payments that will be discussed in the contract.
Several options for popular networks
"Diana"
One of the most popular companies that offers cooperation as a franchisor is the Diana dry cleaning chain. It was organized back in 2002.
This is a large organization that offers wide range services: laundry, cleaning fur products, restoration of things and much more.
At the moment, it continues to develop dynamically, improving the technologies used.
Diana offices are open in a number of major cities Russian Federation, the media constantly publishes all kinds of reviews from people who have used the company’s services.
In this regard, the franchise of this network is truly a great chance to start own business in the field of service provision. Its current acquisition cost is 150 thousand rubles.
What are the advantages of a franchising system with this company?
- Business development under a well-known brand.
- Entrepreneurs do not need to constantly monitor the progress of their activities.
- Available free consultations for any questions.
- Personnel training and selection.
- Value for money at the highest level.
- Carrying out shares at the expense of the company.
You can get detailed information about this network from the following video:
"Fox"
This is one of the oldest companies, which began its activities in 1997. The organization uses in its activities the best equipment of a prestigious Italian brand, the best cleaning products (both Italian and German), etc.
“Lisichka” was the first to open dry cleaning points equipped with high-quality equipment, which at the time of opening had no analogues in the Russian Federation. The equipment operates using a unique technology, namely a hydrocarbon solvent, which ensures gentle cleaning of expensive items.
Currently, the network has over 15 cleaning shops in the capital region. As a result of the fact that the company is popular among the population, it began to work in the field of franchising, in which it was noticeably successful.
Its advantages:
- Training.
- Affordable price.
- Constant consultations.
In conclusion, it is worth noting that franchising is currently one of the most common types of entrepreneurship. This is due to a number of advantages that minimize the possibility of failure and collapse in business.
Opening a laundry is the type of business that can generate stable income. At one time this type of service was popular in Soviet time. Today it has been practically forgotten, which is why there is no fierce competition in the segment of providing laundry services. What does it take to open a laundry and dry cleaning business? How to open a laundry business? Let's figure it out now!
Specifics of laundry work
It may seem strange: opening a laundry service is profitable business, and this niche is empty. Why are entrepreneurs afraid to invest money in a laundry service business? The answer is simple: the vast majority of entrepreneurial people find such an idea financially unattractive.
Never, under all other favorable conditions, will a laundry generate income if it is open in small town. Arrange for the provision of such services in rural areas- this means burying a considerable amount of money in the ground. If you open a business of this kind, it must operate in major cities. However, there are clear nuances here:
- the laundry should be opened in an elite area of the city, where wealthy clients can be found;
- It is better to start a laundry business in areas where students live or housing is rented out for people coming for a certain period of time;
- If you provide laundry services in a residential area, then the main clientele may be residents who do not have their own washing machine.
Before opening the laundry, considering specific features this type of business, you need to weigh everything carefully. Remember: this market segment is aimed at a specific consumer. The business itself, although profitable, is far from being a “mass consumption service.”
Business registration
It is not necessary to register a business under the name of a company. It is enough to act as individual entrepreneur. When issuing an individual entrepreneur certificate, the application indicates the type of activity according to OKVED, such as “Washing, dry cleaning and dyeing of textiles and fur products.” If an individual entrepreneur certificate has already been received, then this type of activity is indicated additionally.
UTII is a taxation system for businesses providing laundry services. After receiving the individual entrepreneur certificate, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with all the regulatory standards that apply in the area where the business is opened. It is necessary to collect a lot of papers on which permitting resolutions are affixed.
It will be necessary to obtain permission from Rospotrebnadzor (conclusion from the local SES for this type of activity). To do this, this supervisory authority will have to provide a package of documents, at a minimum, including:
- production control program (it describes in detail how sanitary and epidemiological measures will be carried out in the laundry);
- agreement for the recycling of fluorescent lighting lamps;
- contract for maintenance (cleaning and disinfection) of ventilation;
- agreement on solid waste removal;
- agreement for carrying out deratization, disinfection, disinfestation measures.
To be sure full list It’s better to go to Rospotrebnadzor itself; the list of the complete package can be supplemented with something else, depending on the subject of the Russian Federation in whose territory you are going to open a laundry.
Attention: until all the necessary papers are collected, you should not even think about finding premises and purchasing equipment. If suddenly something goes wrong with the documents, then all costs will be determined only by obtaining an individual entrepreneur certificate.
Room for opening a laundry room
The laundry business should be opened near hostels, kindergartens, hairdressers, and hotels. This will attract clientele. But the main thing to be guided by when choosing a room is the requirements of the SES. Therefore, let us briefly pay attention to them.
The laundry room should be separate and equipped with high-quality ventilation. It can be either natural or forced. Inside, the noise level during the day should not exceed 55 dB. At night it should be no more than 40 dB. These are the standards that are permitted for residential and general purpose buildings.
Particular attention should be paid to the organization of technological processes: dirty and clean linen should under no circumstances be near each other and should not be in contact. The laundry room must have at least two rooms. The first of them is intended for disinfection of linen, sorting and washing. In the second room, clean clothes are stored, ironed and dried.
The walls and floor of the laundry room must be finished in such a way that they can be systematically disinfected. Such finishing should not interfere with daily cleaning of the room. All materials used for finishing must comply with sanitary and epidemiological standards. The requirement of the SES is that the walls have a coating of ceramic tiles. The height of the covering is at least 2 m from the floor level.
All electrical equipment in the laundry room must be enclosed in structures that protect against moisture. These are the requirements of SNiP and PUE. The requirements are strict, so when choosing a room for a laundry room, they must be taken into account. Otherwise, inspections, fines, or even closure of activities cannot be avoided.
Starting capital (in 2014 prices)
So, let’s figure out how much it costs to open a laundry from scratch. For such a newly opened business, the following equipment is recommended:
- professional-class washing machine with drum loading from 8 kg – 3 pcs. ( average price- 50,000 rubles for 1 piece);
- professional-class dryer with drum loading from 5.5 kg – 2 pcs. (average price - 29,000 rubles per 1 piece);
- ironing machine – 1 pc. (average price - 50,000 rubles);
- ironing table – 1 pc. (average price - 10,000 rubles);
- iron with steam generator – 1 pc. (average price - 8000 rubles);
- tables on which laundry will be laid out and sorted - 2 pcs. (average price - 7,000 rubles per 1 piece);
- trolleys on which laundry will be transported – 2 pcs. (average price - 5000 rubles per 1 piece).
Taken for calculation retail prices. If you purchase equipment from wholesale companies, it will be much cheaper.
Let's assume that our enterprise has the following features:
- laundry is open in a city where there are many educational institutions;
- room area 32 sq. m. (such a room is enough to open a mini-laundry; several sets of equipment can be placed here);
- duration of the working day – 12 hours without lunch;
- the room is equipped with hot and cold water, sewerage, exhaust hood (there were no costs for repairing the premises);
- staff – 1 person (laundry owner).
In total, the initial costs, taking into account the cost of equipment, renting premises and paperwork, will amount to approximately 300 thousand rubles.
Advertising
Flow potential clients depends on advertising. Initially, you can advertise your services through advertisements in print media. You can resort to posting leaflets on houses, elevators, and bus stops. If you create a business card website for an establishment, you will be able to familiarize people with the list of services and prices via the Internet.
Advanced entrepreneurs order a report about a new laundry on radio or television. You can also attract customers through organizing small but pleasant promotions. It is advisable to start cooperation with clothing stores - this will help attract clientele through advertising and employee recommendations.
Self-service laundry
It has already been said that opening a laundry that operates as usual is a promising type of business with virtually no competition. As for the laundromat, this idea is much fresher. Considering that in our country such offers are rare, the competition here is even less than that of enterprises providing full-cycle laundry services.
If the client is ready to go to a regular laundry on the other side of the city, then with the self-service option this should not happen. Therefore, services are best offered in e.g. mall cities where potential clientele constantly flock for various purchases: while things are being washed, people go to boutiques.
It is necessary to ensure that there is no accumulation of big number of people.
Keep in mind that in our country it is not always possible to find suitable laundry equipment. The choice depends on the ambitions of the individual entrepreneur. Therefore, sometimes some people have to purchase equipment abroad, which is much more expensive.
Self-service laundry can also be automatic. For this format, you need to pay attention to Laundromats. The room where washing machines are installed is equipped with special acceptors for bills or coins. Such laundries are common mainly in the USA and developed countries Europe. There are practically no such offers in Russia!
Profit from laundry (in 2014 prices)
The average income from laundries is 30-60 thousand rubles monthly.
Utility costs - no more than 10 thousand rubles. Purchase detergents will cost an average of 2 thousand rubles. If accounting support for the business and additional personnel are needed, monthly expenses increase.
Monthly net profit averages 30-40 thousand rubles.
The payback period for opening a laundry service business is 10 months.
Opening a dry cleaner is profitable if the niche in your city is still free. And in order not to make a mistake with cleaning products and equipment, you can take out a dry cleaning franchise and immediately overtake all competitors in technological innovations.
At all times, people survived by providing household services. Laundresses made money by washing the clothes of rich people - and could easily feed their family with this. Now there is no need to wash by hand, so profit turnover can be seriously increased. In addition, stains always arise that you cannot remove on your own (and even the almighty folk remedies won't cope). Yes and, again, to modern man It’s much easier to take car covers or sleeping bags to the laundry after going to the laundry than to spend half a day doing it and then drying them somewhere else.
What types of dry cleaners are there?
Various services are emerging to meet consumer demands. Over time, what is profitable to offer to the market has taken shape in three standard formats:
|
Reception point |
Full scale dry cleaning | Self-service laundry | |
| Wash | At a partner company | In the same building - from mini dry cleaning to huge factories (depending on demand - and your capabilities, of course) | |
| Room | Small, only for receiving clothes |
|
Room with equipment and ventilation |
| Equipment | Furniture (wardrobes, hangers) for storing ready-made clothes |
|
Washing machines |
| Consumables | Hangers, covers |
|
Powders, laundry baskets |
| Employees |
|
|
|
| Opening price | 240,000 rub. |
|
From 800,000 rub. |
The first two formats (especially the second) readily offer additional services:
- Delivery of things to your home;
- On-site clothing collection;
- Painting things;
- Repair and restoration of things (especially bags and clothes);
- Dry cleaning at home (sofas, carpets, etc.)
Dry cleaning yourself or through a franchise?
It’s very easy to open a collection point yourself; the main thing is to come to an agreement with the company. Hotels are often willing to make contact; they already have everything they need to efficiently remove stains from any fabric, and additional income can only benefit them.
But to open a full-fledged dry cleaning service, you need to have a very good understanding of the intricacies of the business. It is especially important to find good cleaning products that are both effective against stains and do not damage fabrics. It is equally important to know at what temperature and in what modes a particular fabric can be washed. And when it comes to leather, nubuck, velor and other finicky materials, the technological process must be strictly followed.
It is very easy to ruin your reputation with poor quality work. And it’s easy to avoid this - and you won’t even have to get a second one. higher education or study someone else's for several years successful business from the inside. A dry cleaning franchise is just what you need! Optimal equipment, effective washing chemicals, staff training and ready-made recipes for technological and business processes - all this will be provided by franchising!
You also need to join a network of dry cleaners or laundries if:
- There is little competition in the city;
- Only local companies operate in the city - then a large chain dry cleaner with technological innovations that provincial competitors do not have will still be a winner.
Pitfalls of opening a dry cleaner
The advantages of dry cleaners as a business are that you do not need to obtain any operating licenses.
The difficulties relate mainly to the most profitable format of dry cleaning – full-scale:
- You need permission from the Sanitary and Epidemiological Service and permission from Rospotrebnadzor.
- Expensive equipment - mainly from Germany and Italy.
- Not all premises can open a dry cleaner.
The last point is worth considering in more detail, since there are many requirements:
- Non-residential building, and at least 100 m from residential buildings;
- First floor or basement;
- Ceilings not lower than 3 m;
- Minimum area – 50 m2;
- Separate rooms for visitors, administration, dry cleaning, ironing and storage;
- Sewage, ventilation, water supply, electricity.
The ideal place for all dry cleaners is residential areas or adjacent to dormitories. Agree, it is unlikely that anyone will go to the business center of the city with a bag of dirty laundry
However, choosing a location is still a small matter. Serious difficulties must be overcome during the registration process.
Since dry cleaning means an abundance of water and chemicals in city sewerage and treatment facilities, the water utility will regularly check volumes and environmental safety.
Sanitary conditions will have to be observed inside, especially in air conditioning and ventilation systems:
- Pest control;
- Disinfection;
- Deratization;
- Garbage removal;
- And even recycling fluorescent lamps.
All this must be taken care of in advance and agreements must be concluded with the relevant organizations. Otherwise, you won’t be able to get permission to open.
Despite the abundance of water, fire requirements must be met, including alarms and fire extinguishers.
Dry cleaning franchises
Profitability (the ratio of income to inevitable expenses) of dry cleaning is at least 15%, but rarely more than 50%. On the one hand, the cost of a franchise can slightly extend the payback period. On the other hand, with a franchise the business will have a better chance of a long and successful existence.

All franchises offer employee training and assistance in promoting the brand. The partner will only have to notify about the opening (for example, using discounts for the first hundred clients). The franchise will do the rest.
Speaking of discounts and promotions. Collect customer contacts - and then notify them about all of them special offers, as well as discounts for birthdays and holidays! It is at this time that the most difficult stains appear on your favorite clothes, and the care of a good dry cleaner will come in very handy! The Diana dry cleaner was one of the first to do this. The franchise will give even more good advice. Take advantage of this before someone else fills the vacant niche!
