as per topic.. discuss please

Finance forum not much traffic, that's why asking here.

For those who don't know, laudrybar is basically a coin operated laundromat.

there's 2 in the same taman here in kepong.
should be good.

depends on area lo.

biasa saja.
cari makan boleh but want to earn big money...nono..except ada hubungan.

find some strategic place, do homework

my town already 2

Expansive equipment...and now everywhere got laundry bar...estimate 70% will bungkus

recce tempat dulu, pastuh jalan..kalau nak lagi best, try come out with better offer and discount

popping out fast nowdays...better be fast

i think theres' good demand in kelantan ... should open there .

why kelantan?

if u got 300k to invest in it, i'm quite sure its decent

depends on area/location n cleanliness of your outlet.

good $$$ and as i ask 1 of the owner, to start up also not tat expensive, depends on location of shop and machines(washer/dryer) u choose.

my auntie fren very kaya..

she owns one of the famous laundry shop.. many branch forgot ady what name.. i think more than 10 yrs..


tipula finance section no info.. i read quite a lot fr there la, summore got supplier/startup ppl there

here ppl spam got la.. no quality post wan

I think if kasi free wifi sure lots of people

finance got la..i no say no info...i say no traffic. plus there got many supplier..sure say kaokao nice things only..but as all business got bad side wan..so trying to see if anyone got feedback here

Okay, my place, a bit ulu, outskirt of city. At 1st open 1. 6 months after tat got another open, competitor.

I think its a lucrative bisness

you slow by 1 year liao

Too many laundry bars everywhere, n mostly empty. Those dobi shops will be badly effected.

To me, get ur own washing machine.

Buat somewhere near uni area or condo. More traffic there.

depends on area ma..my area so far only one..that also in taman...now i see lots of apartment/condo coming up so maybe got potential

FREE WIFI should be password free, dont like starbek got password now. i hate like have to beg for password to access that free wifi. people rather dont use that wifi and do your homework: how to block the wifi outside your business premise

#21 i meant free from password encryption

oo ok..

to me.. near high rised apt/condo would be good

cos usually singles/new families/short term ppl renting live there n coudnlt be bothered to buy washing machine.

if normal terraced house, families living there most of the time, sure they got washing machine wan.

but still need to go to laundry place cos sometimes need to use larger/industrial grade washer n dryer
heavy blankets n stuff

this business bagai cendawan tumbuh lepas hujan

didnt expect it to be so good

now everywhere in subang and pj as i can see

I can say, it is a very good business. Ara Damansara got a lot of new condo. You should do some survey here. Here, even got a lot of laundrybar, still got so many people use it.

area and target audience.

u dont go put one at tempat rumah orang kaya.. sure rugi la

good luck when you get hacked

not really, very depend on location.

if u got business from restaurant or other, margin also not much.

Must be clean, if your customers all cheongsters or ayam with STD, habis la..

I went kelantan , ingat wanna minum beer .. but cant find a good place . I assume it's similar with most ppl there .

Freaking good business with no competitors .. I tell , sure millionaire .

A few I know are successfully washing money

In general coin operated laundry is now very competitive.
You specifically named laundrybar. They are very disorganised, slow, under staffed and mainly like cinapek running the show.
#victim

there must be a way for hassle free wifi access but also secure right?

They're usually targeted for people who can't keep washing machine, those who are renting places.

Yeah that is one of the more popular franchises. but i'm sure there are more. I think key is to introduce something different but yet maintaining the competiveness

I don't mind giving out free wifi but not without some sort of security

Yes. My neighbour opened the 100th shop ( blue color one) and change the car from m6 to f458 already.

tipu ke serious ni?

Kidding jer

There will be kids and couples eating kuaci spilling coke at 4am

My area of 6km radius got at least 8 that i can remember. Different brands. 1 of the new one got wifi and nice chairs and tables.

what u mean understaffed? I don't see any staff there

Maintenance, technician, sales, office worker, etc

If your location is good. expect about 2 years to breakeven.

Otherwise, nope. You're a little too late to join the boat afaik.

If you can get a liquor license, why not? But drunken customers may do stupid and cruel things like throwing cats around, or putting them into the washing machines.

Can make money especially during rainy season. Ppl go for the dryer

study tempat..buat tempat ramai orang malas basuh baju bro..

as for WiFi . just set the WiFi strength to just 10%
enough to cover ur premise. and not stable enuff for people outside ur premise to abuse it.
