Starting A Car Wash Service Business

Car wash service business is one of the lucrative businesses one can venture into. What makes it lucrative? Simply, because it is a service business and involves no much

capital and no technical skill.

Car wash service has been in high demand in our country today by individuals, motorists, organizations, government palastatals and others who are very busy with their business or private affairs and rarely have time for washing their cars after the day work.

Establishing car wash business does not involve much capital and you will make your return or breakeven within a short period, it also does not involve much equipment. You will need to buy or rent an open space around the city where people live, it won’t cost much, then buy an automatic machine that enables water for washing the car, this is not compulsory though you can handle it manually using your bucket or big bowl and sponge. You will also need a car wash liquid soap which help protect the car body paint, avoid bar soap. And finally water source (maybe a big tank).

Advice: it will be better if you work with already established car wash center before establishing your own. This will help you with the finance and expertise you need to successfully manage yours.

Lets do some analysis on projected revenue, for each car washed you charge at least between #500 - #1000. Assuming you washed up to 6 cars a day as a professional car washer, what’s your revenue per day #500 * 6 = #3000. Assuming it continues like that for a month it becomes #3000 * 26 = #78000 and annually it is up to #900000. Assuming out of this #900000, you were able to save #500000, it is still enough for you to establish your own car wash center comfortably and employ people to work for you.

Hope it helps any addition
