I attended a laundry seminar sometime 2004. It was conducted by Electrolux. It was a very informative seminar. They thought us about the factors affecting laundry, types of machines used, the detergents, how to promote your business. I knew at the time that there were more to be discussed but due to time constraint not everything was thought. Besides, it's a free seminar. They were selling washers, at the time it was called washcators. It is a front load washer, well second hand, but they also offer brand new units. Also they offer a tumble dryer that has a 75kg. capacity.
Unfortunately, i did not pursue the laundry business. My attention was diverted to soap making. I saw great potential then, because laundry shops are sprouting like mushrooms and these shops could become buyers. At the time i was making cheap laundry detergent. I my mind a good soap creates lots of bubbles. How wrong i was. In my years of making soap i learned that the more sudsy a detergent is, the more difficult it is to rinse. You will need more water to rinse away the soap.
The machines at home or even a laundry shops, will not be able to detect if there is no more soap in the tub. It would just run according to it's preset program. You will definitely smell like sweat once you are under the sun with a clothe that is not completely rinse.
This prompted me to stop producing bubbly detergent and made some research and now i am producing my own High Efficiency Laundry detergent soap which i called OXY SOAP. I'd been making OXY Soap for almost 5 years. Only on my 3rd year did i decide to go on and have my own laundry business.
I have so many ideas to share which is why i decided to have this blog. So watch out for more laundry related topics.
I made a lists here some of the coming topics:
- How to make your own Job Order
