Laundry service makes everyday life easier (Eden Life, n.d.). In this business for the
washing, drying, and ironing of clothes and other fabrics people can save time and effort.
People can spend less time doing laundry, so they can set aside more time for what matters
and enjoy their free time.
Laundry services also employ a trained team who knows how to properly clean and care
for clothes or other fabrics, to keep it in good conditions. It can save people money and
extend the life of a garment. Most laundry services have used best equipment and quality
detergents to clean know better than normal laundry machines. Having their laundry
washed by trained personnel saves people time and effort, which allows them to embrace a
simpler, more efficient lifestyle instead.
Most of the modern-day lifestyle has become a bit more hectic and urbanization has
increased, thus the needs of the people keep changing. As the global population
continues to grow, so does the demand for convenient services such as laundry, as more
and more individuals juggle work, studies, and other commitments. Laundry services have
emerged as a trusted solution for working professionals, students, and households who just
do not have the chance or time to do their laundry. The increase of living in apartments or
condominiums where personal laundry options are usually limited.
Therefore, there is opportunity for laundry services in this trend particularly for those
businesses that can deliver affordability and quality service as well as respond to customer
needs. (Sari et al., 2023).
According to a report by Grand View Research (2023), the global laundry services market
was valued at 69.3 billion U.S. dollars in 2022 and is expected to grow at a compound
annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.0% from 2023 to 2030. With busy lifestyles leaving less
time for household chores, consumers are increasingly seeking convenient and cost-
effective solutions for clothing maintenance, which enables the industry to experience this
growth. A 2022 study by Harvard Business Review found that 86.5 million Americans have
used on-demand laundry services at least once, and 40 percent of users are between the
ages of 18 and 34. This suggests that younger generations are an important driver of the
industry’s growth.
Laundry services from country to country echo cultural practices, social needs, and
creative solutions. In India dhobi ghats are popular, open-air laundries where professional
laundrymen known as dhobis scrub clothes by hand in big shared areas. One of the most
famous examples is that of Mahalaxmi Dhobi Ghat in Mumbai, which was founded in 1890
and is the largest outdoor laundry in the world, with vast amounts of clothing being cleaned
on a daily basis (Dhobi Ghat, 2025).
Meanwhile in Australia, mobile laundry services have arrived thanks to Orange Sky
Laundry, a non-profit organization established in 2014 to provide free washers and dryers
in vans to the homeless. Additionally, the project, which is now being implemented in
several Australian cities, seeks to establish social connections between those experiencing
homelessness (Orange Sky Laundry, 2024).
Singapore's laundry, old school meets newschool Many residents in high-rise public
housing dry their clothes with bamboo poles stretched out from their balconies, a reflection
of the warm climate. Moreover,self-service laundromats with improved features have turned
laundry into a more enjoyable and comfortable event (Sendhelper, 2024; Business Insider,
2025). These v methods for providing laundry services and are indicativ of the ways in
which culture and innovation continue to influence how people manage their laundry needs
around the world.

Urbanization and lifestyle alterations have already been positively affecting the industry, which will
continue to thrive and improve as the laundry market demand (Putra et al., 2024, Brake 2023). It will
be important to look at internal and external aspects reason of the factors in order to make a plan
that improves the laundry business and accomplishes customers requirements. Internal Factor
Evaluation (IFE) and External Factor Evaluation (EFE), SWOT analysis are used to analyze the
strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of the business. From pinpointing strategic
locations to bettering service quality and improving customer service, laundry businesses can
increase customer loyalty and gain new clients. The business can also combat vulnerabilities like a
lack of capital and communication issues with the management system by implementing alternate
funding options and enhancing processes within the business to make it more competitive overall.
These are just a few effective marketing strategies that can be leveraged, such as market
segmentation and influencer collaborations, to target specific customer demographics and improve
engagement. This blog highlights the idea of customer satisfaction and operational efficiency, which
are important for laundry industries to grow in a highly competitive market and cater changing
customer needs.
Laundry services with service quality, customer trust, and customer satisfaction are important factors
that influence customer loyalty. The relationship among these variables was explored by Ramdhanty
and Muslim (2024), who confirmed that service quality significantly affects customer trust and
customer satisfaction, the effects of which lead to customer loyalty. The study highlighted high-
quality services like timely delivery, effective communication, and consistent performance, which
develop trust among customers, resulting in increased satisfaction and long-term customer loyalty
(Rasool, 2023). The authors found that customer satisfaction mediates the relationship between
service quality and loyalty. The limiting factors, service ethics, and trust as the elements above
plays a vital role to retain customers in the laundry service as it highlights the need policy of service
standards in order to maintain customer loyalty. Findings of the study provide important guidance to
laundry service industry providers looking to increase customer loyalty by providing higher quality
services and developing trust within the service delivery process.
Four main variables affect customers decisions when selecting laundry services. Workers,
friendliness, price, service quality, brand image, and location. In a study carried out by Osmar and
Hermeindito (2016) to analyze the effect of these factors on the customer's decision, they reported
that one of the most crucial determinants emerged to be the quality of service and friendliness of
workers. Because of this, their research focused on the fact that friendly and professional staff, and
quality service, are top of mind for customers when selecting a laundry provider. Furthermore,
competitive price, strong brand image and location also found to be significantly ultimate factors in
satisfying customers and enhancing the loyalty towards brand. The implications of these findings
indicate that laundry service providers need to enhance service quality, foster positive customer
interactions, and maintain competitive pricing to attract and retain customers in a competitive
market.
Organization Management
This business will use Partnership, especially if the business needs additional resources,
skills, or manpower to establish or expand. Having a partner means that shared
responsibilities and workloads allow for ease of keeping things running on a daily basis and
combating hardships together. Partners can complement each other’s strengths, with one
handling customer service and operations and the other marketing and finances. Such a
division of labor is actually more efficient and effective. Another advantage is that partners
may combine their financial resources, which can assist startup costs such as equipment,
rent, or marketing costs. Profit is a shared concept however the team effort results in high
growth potential and bigger bottom line.
Business Structure and Culture
With Partnership, certain division of roles can be created among the partners according to
their abilities in order to make decisions in a way that will not slow down the operation of
the laundry service. One partner may choose to oversee day-to-day processes and delegate
workloads to staff while the other may take care of customer relation, marketing, and sales
strategies. While staff should respect and accept the alternatives chosen by the partners, the
partners should be willing to professionally listen up to their staffs when new processes or
service quality issues arise and make suggestions. To keep a healthy and productive
workplace, partners and employees should have mutual respect between each other.
Because this is a partnership, each owner needs to be able to work well together,
communicate well, and be on the same page about goals for the business. They are
expected to be diligent and have accountability and provide quality services according to
customer expectations. This collaborative setup also introduces elements of teamwork,
accountability, and continuous improvement that strengthens the efficiency and sustainable
