We open a dry cleaning franchise: a detailed business plan. Self-service laundry

The franchise is currently an integral part of modern business... It 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 business.

Another question for aspiring businessmen is which industry to choose. One of the most popular now is the opening of its 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, given sufficient attention, can bring good profits.

Such a business can be opened in completely different ways:

  • Opening of the acceptance point... An entrepreneur opens only a collection point for things, but services are provided by a large organization that has the necessary equipment.
  • Opening your own small business, which is engaged in the provision of the entire complex list of services (reception, cleaning and delivery). It should be noted right away that such an establishment implies a fairly large investment both in the development of the process and in advertising.
  • And the most profitable option is to open a small dry cleaning by buying a franchise from a large enterprise... As a result, 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 peculiarities. An entrepreneur must choose the most appropriate path of development based on his experience and ambitions. By the way, according to statistics, more than 80% of entrepreneurs fail in their first year of work. 16% close their business in the first five years. What is the end result? Only 4% of successful businessmen.

However, the situation is completely different among entrepreneurs who work on a franchise. Among them, almost 90% successfully work and cope with the laws of the market. An additional plus is that the franchise system is resistant to crises of various kinds, including the economic one.

Benefits from cooperation

Franchising is a certain type of business in which an entrepreneur acquires a franchise by concluding an agreement with a large organization. Then there is an opening of a collection point for clothes (of course, it is necessary in advance). The franchisor will be a very important assistant for a novice entrepreneur, as he will help to solve a number of issues:

  • Registration of the required documents.
  • Selection of qualified personnel.

Also, one should not forget that a businessman will have to work under the brand name of a large company, which is well known to customers. In this regard, the costs of advertising and promotion of production are minimized.

For his part, the owner of the dry cleaner will make deductions from his income, make an entrance fee and other payments that will be negotiated in the contract.

Several variants of popular networks

"Diana"

One of the most popular companies that offers cooperation as a franchisor is the Diana dry-cleaner chain. It was organized back in 2002.

It is a large organization that offers wide range services: laundry, cleaning fur products, restoring things and much more.

At the moment, it continues to develop dynamically, improving the technologies used.

Diana offices are open in a number of large cities Russian Federation, the media constantly publishes all kinds of reviews of people who have used the services of the company.

In this regard, the franchise of this network represents a really great chance to start own business in the provision of services. The cost of its acquisition is currently equal to 150 thousand rubles.

What are the advantages of a franchise system with this company?

  • Business development under a well-known brand.
  • Entrepreneurs do not need to constantly monitor the progress of activities.
  • Available free consultations for any questions.
  • Training and staff recruitment.
  • Value for money at the highest level.
  • Carrying out promotions at the expense of the company.

You can get detailed information about this network from the following video:

"Chanterelle"

It is one of the oldest companies, which started 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.

"Fox" 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 workshops in the capital region. As a result of the fact that the company is popular among the population, it began working in the field of franchising, in which it has noticeably succeeded.

Her advantages:

  • Training.
  • Affordable cost.
  • Constant consultations.

In conclusion, it should be noted that the franchise is currently one of the most common types of entrepreneurship. This is due to a number of advantages that minimize the possibility of business failure and failure.

Opening a laundry is the kind of business that can generate a steady income. At one time, this type of service was popular in Soviet time... Today it is practically forgotten, and therefore there is no fierce competition in the segment of providing laundry services. What does it take to open a laundry-dry cleaning? How to start a laundry business? Let's figure it out now!

The specifics of the laundry

It may sound strange: the opening of the laundry is profitable business, and this niche is empty. Why are entrepreneurs wary of investing in a laundry service business? The answer is simple: the vast majority of entrepreneurial people find this idea financially unattractive.

Under all other favorable conditions, the laundry will never generate income if it is open in small town... Arrange the provision of such services in countryside- it means to bury a considerable amount of money in the ground. If you open this kind of business, then it should function in large cities... However, there are clear nuances here:

  • a 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 those areas where students live or rent housing for people who come for a certain time;
  • if we provide services for washing clothes in a residential area, then the main clientele may become residents who do not have their own washing machine.

Before opening the laundry, given specific features this type of business, you need to weigh everything carefully. Remember: this market segment is targeted at a specific customer. The business itself, though profitable, is far from one of the "mass consumption services".

Business registration

It is not necessary to register a business with a company. It is enough to act as individual entrepreneur... When issuing an individual entrepreneur certificate, the application indicates such a type of activity according to OKVED, such as "Washing, dry cleaning and dyeing of textile and fur products." If the IP certificate has already been received, then this type of activity is indicated additionally.

UTII is a taxation system for a business providing laundry services. After receiving the IP certificate, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with all the regulatory standards that are in force in the area of ​​starting a business. It is necessary to collect a lot of papers on which permissive resolutions are affixed.

You will definitely need to obtain permission from Rospotrebnadzor (the conclusion of the local SES for this type of activity). To do this, this supervisory authority will have to provide a package of documents, at least, including:

  • production control program (it describes in detail how sanitary and epidemiological measures will be carried out in the laundry);
  • a contract for the disposal of fluorescent lighting lamps;
  • maintenance contract (cleaning and disinfection) of ventilation;
  • agreement on the export of solid waste;
  • contract for the implementation of deratization, disinfection, disinsection measures.

To clarify full list it is 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 the territory of which you are going to open a laundry.

Attention: until all the necessary papers have been collected, you should not even think about finding a room and buying equipment. If suddenly something goes wrong with the documents, then all the costs will be due only to the receipt of the IP certificate.

Laundry room

A laundry facility should be opened close to hostels, kindergartens, hairdressers, hotels. This will attract a clientele. But the main thing to be guided by when choosing a room is the requirements of the SES. Therefore, in short, we will pay attention to them.

The laundry room should be separate, equipped with high-quality ventilation. It can be both natural and forced. Inside, the noise level during the day should not be higher than 55 dB. At night, it should be no more than 40 dB. These are the norms that are allowed for residential and general buildings.

Particular attention should be paid to the organization of technological processes: dirty and clean linen in no case should be near each other and should not be in contact. The laundry room should have at least two rooms. The first of them is intended for laundry disinfection, sorting and washing. In the second room, clean items 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 premises. All materials used for decoration must comply with sanitary and epidemiological standards. The SES requirement is reduced to the presence of a coating on the walls ceramic tiles... The height of the cover is at least 2 m from the floor level.

All electrical equipment in the laundry should be enclosed in a structure that protects against moisture. These are the requirements of SNiP and PUE. The requirements are tough, therefore, when choosing a room for a laundry, they must be taken into account. Otherwise, checks, fines or even the closure of activities cannot be avoided.

Start-up capital (in prices of 2014)

So, let's figure out how much it costs to open a laundry from scratch. For such a newly opened business, the following configuration is recommended:

  • professional-class washing machine with drum loading from 8 kg - 3 pcs. ( average price- 50,000 rubles for 1 piece);
  • dryer of professional class 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 a steam generator - 1 pc. (average price - 8000 rubles);
  • tables on which linen will be laid out and sorted - 2 pcs. (average price - 7000 rubles per 1 piece);
  • carts on which linen will be transported - 2 pcs. (the average price is 5000 rubles per 1 piece).

For the calculation are taken retail prices... If the equipment is purchased from wholesale companies, it will be much cheaper.

Let's assume that our company 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, you can put several sets of equipment here);
  • working day - 12 hours without lunch;
  • the room is equipped with a hot and cold water, sewerage, extractor hood (there were no expenses for repairing the premises);
  • staff - 1 person (owner of the laundry).

In total, the initial costs, taking into account the cost of equipment, lease of premises and paperwork, will amount to approximately 300 thousand rubles.

Advertising

Flow potential clients depends on advertising. Initially, advertisements for services can be made through advertisements in print media. You can resort to posting leaflets on houses, elevators, bus stops. If you create a business card site for an institution, you will be able to acquaint people with the list of services and prices via the Internet.

Savvy entrepreneurs order radio or television coverage of the new laundry. You can also attract customers through the organization of 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 works as usual is a promising type of business that has practically no competition. When it comes to self-service laundry, this idea is much more recent. Considering that such offers are rare in our country, the competition here is even less than that of enterprises providing full-cycle washing services.

If the client is ready to go to a regular laundry on the other side of the city, then this should not be the case with the self-service option. Therefore, it is best to offer services, for example, in mall cities where potential clientele constantly gathers for various purchases: while clothes are being washed, people go to boutiques.

It is necessary to ensure that such a laundry does not accumulate in the room big number people.
Keep in mind that it is not always possible to find the right laundry equipment in our country. 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 the laundromats. The room where washing machines are installed is equipped with special receivers for bills or coins. Such laundries are common mainly in the United States and developed countries Europe. There are practically no such proposals in Russia!

Laundry profit (2014 prices)

The average income from laundries is 30-60 thousand rubles per month.
Utility bills - no more than 10 thousand rubles. Purchase detergents will cost an average of 2 thousand rubles. If you need business accounting and additional staff, monthly expenses increase.
The average monthly net profit is 30-40 thousand rubles.
The payback of a business for opening a laundry service is 10 months.

Opening a dry cleaner is beneficial if a niche in your city is still free. And in order not to make a mistake with cleaning products and equipment, you can take a dry cleaning franchise and immediately overtake all competitors in technological innovations.

At all times, people survived by providing household services. Laundresses earned money by washing clothes of rich people - and they could well feed their families. Now there is no need to wash by hand, so the turnover of profits can be seriously increased. In addition, spots always appear that you cannot remove on your own (and even the omnipotent folk remedies will not cope). And, again, modern man It is much easier to carry car covers or sleeping bags after going to the laundry than to spend half a day on it, and then dry somewhere else.

What are dry cleaners

Various services appear to meet the needs of consumers. Over time, what the market is profitable to offer took shape in three standard formats:

Reception point

Full-scale dry cleaning Self-service laundry
Washing At a partner enterprise In the same building - from mini dry cleaners to huge factories (depending on demand - and your capabilities, of course)
Premises Small, only for receiving clothes
  • Reception room (from 50 m 2)
  • Workroom (from 200 m 2) that meets all fire and environmental safety standards
Room with equipment and ventilation
Equipment Furniture (cabinets, hangers) for storing ready-made clothes
  • Washing machines, irons, steam generator and steam air mannequin
  • Men's shirt press
  • Apparatus for packing clothes
  • Dryers, etc.
  • + installation and debugging of equipment
Washing machines
Consumables Hangers, covers
  • Washing powders
  • Stain removers specialized chemicals, hangers, spray guns, etc.
Powders, laundry baskets
Employees
  • Receiver
  • Driver (preferably with your own vehicle)
  • Technologist
  • Workers
  • Ironers
  • Accountant
  • Driver
  • Security guard
  • Cashier or special machine
Opening price RUB 240,000
  • Medium size - 1.2 million rubles
  • Large - 80 million rubles
From 800,000 rubles.

The first two formats (especially the second) willingly offer additional services:

  • Delivery of things to the house;
  • Exit collection of clothes;
  • Painting things;
  • Repair and restoration of things (especially bags and clothes);
  • Dry cleaning at home (sofas, carpets, etc.)

Dry cleaning on your own or on a franchise?

It is very easy to open a collection point on your own, the main thing is to agree with the company. Often, hotels willingly come to contact, which already have everything they need for high-quality stain removal from any fabrics, and the additional income is only on hand.

But to open a full-fledged dry cleaning, you need to be very well versed in the intricacies of the case. It is especially important to find good cleaning agents that are both effective against dirt and non-destructive to 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 fabrics, here the technological process must be strictly observed.

It is very easy to spoil your reputation with low-quality work. And it's easy to avoid this - and you don't even have to get a second higher education or study a stranger for several years successful business from the inside. A dry cleaning franchise is just what you need! Optimal equipment, effective washing chemicals, personnel training and ready-made recipes for technological and business processes - all this will give franchising!

You also need to join a network of dry cleaners or laundries if:

  • There is little competition in the city;
  • Only local companies work in the city - then a large chain dry-cleaner with technological innovations that provincial competitors do not have will still win.

The pitfalls of opening dry cleaning

The advantage of dry cleaners as a business is that you do not need to obtain any licenses to operate.

The difficulties relate mainly to the most profitable format of dry cleaning - full-scale:

  1. We need permission from the Sanitary and Epidemiological Service and permission from Rospotrebnadzor.
  2. Expensive equipment - mainly from Germany and Italy.
  3. Not all rooms can be dry cleaned.

The last point should be considered in more detail, since there are many requirements:

  • Non-residential building, and at least 100 m from residential;
  • Ground floor or basement;
  • Ceilings not lower than 3 m;
  • The minimum area is 50 m 2;
  • Separate rooms for visitors, administration, dry cleaning itself, ironing and warehouse;
  • Sewerage, ventilation, water supply, electricity.

Ideal for all dry cleaners - sleeping areas or neighborhood dorms. Agree, hardly anyone will go to the downtown with a package of dirty linen

However, the choice of location is still a flower. Serious difficulties have to be overcome during the registration process.

Since dry cleaning is an abundance of water with chemicals in city ​​sewerage and treatment facilities, the water utility will regularly check the volumes and environmental safety.

Sanitary conditions will have to be observed inside, especially in air conditioning and ventilation systems:

  • Disinsection;
  • Disinfection;
  • Deratization;
  • Garbage removal;
  • And even the recycling of fluorescent lamps.

All this must be taken care of in advance and contracts with the relevant organizations must be concluded. Otherwise, permission to open cannot be obtained.

Despite the abundance of water, fire regulations must be met right down to alarms and fire extinguishers.

Dry cleaning franchises

The profitability (ratio of income to inevitable costs) of dry cleaning is at least 15%, but rarely more than 50%. On the one hand, the cost of a franchise can lengthen the payback period a bit. On the other hand, with a franchise, a business will have more chances for a long and successful existence.

By the way, about discounts and promotions. Collect customer contacts - and then notify them about all special offers, as well as discounts for birthdays and holidays! It is at this time that the most difficult stains appear on the most beloved clothes, and the care of a good dry-cleaner will come in handy! Diana dry cleaner was one of the first to start doing this. The franchise will give you even more good advice. Use it until the free niche is occupied by someone else!

Clothing care is always required, so dry cleaning will never be left without customers. You will learn how to open a dry cleaning franchise, which type of cooperation to choose, as well as the main advantages of the business, you will learn from our article.

In the absence of competition and with a sufficient flow of customers, this business can pay off in a year. The main risks are the loss of reputation and customers due to damage to clothing, violation of safety rules and the sequence of the technological process (you can get sanctions from the regulatory authorities).

Required documents

A license is not required to open a dry cleaner. But since production can pose a threat environment, you will have to collect a lot of documents:

Starting a franchise business gives you the opportunity to use an already proven idea, while minimizing the risk of ruin. But not all franchisors have the same favorable terms of cooperation. Therefore, before concluding a contract, you should learn more about the nuances of working on a franchise, namely:

  • It is necessary to find out how stable the company is, how long it has been on the market.
  • Find out the number of partners: how many there are and how many have left the business. Find reviews about working with a franchisor.
  • Particular attention should be paid to the cost of the franchise and the investment required.
  • Clarify contractual relationship... The possibility of selling the business and extending the contract.
  • Discover possible ways solving conflict and disputable situations.
  • Get acquainted with the requirements of the franchisor for potential partners.
  • Monitor competitors and study the market.
  • Find out about the level of training provided to staff and the training materials offered.

  • Learn about the franchising experience of a future partner.

Features for different cities

When opening a dry cleaning franchise in small town a significant advantage will be a little competition. In order to assess the feasibility of opening a franchise in a particular city, you should find out how many dry cleaners are already open, how many of them operate under a franchise. If the competition is not high, then you can safely start choosing a company that provides a franchising service. If there are only local companies in the city, then the opening of a dry cleaning franchise will provide an opportunity to implement new products that have been operating in large cities for a long time, but have not yet reached the regions.
  1. Reception points are best placed closer to densely populated parts of the city, where there is a large number of potential clients.
  2. It is advisable to combine the activities of dry cleaning with additional services: a laundry room, a workshop for the repair and painting of things.
  3. It is necessary to highlight the enterprise among the rest, for example, to arrange exit points for receiving clothes, with subsequent delivery to your home.
