Source of water? Gp tank... Car Washing / pressure machine 75000 Sponges, brushes, buckets, rags 5000 Car port N/A Hose.. yard is about 300naira Land space/rent N/A Chairs and table 4chairs 10k, table N/A These are the things you need to start I own a car wash I don't know the price of gpee tanks in the market recently, you could price and select the size suitable and affordable for at the nearest building materials marketing your area. The basic challenge with this business is staff, just like any other small business. They might wash 5 cars in your absence but declare only 2. I know how many times I've caught my boys lieing about cars washed and believe you me this could run you down. The best buckets to use are paint buckets, best soft Sponges are gotten from mosquitoes nets. Brushes go for 500 naira. Do you have a source of water, I use the water board pipe borne water. You need a small shop to store your properties after closing (staff may sleep over too) Chat me up Zero 7 zero 6 11 nine 0952 22 Likes 2 Shares |

Detailed information for you and other Nairalanders/Nigerians that what to go into this business. This is one of our several businesses @[b][/b]. So this info are up to date. Goodluck Guys. (@Seun Osewa.......hmmmmmm) 1. Manage your finance Make sure you know how to raise money for your business. To small-scale one, sparing a budget around N200,000 to N500,000 from your own savings might be sufficient for initial operation. However, the capital must be many times higher for large-scale car washing services. In that case, you may need to call upon the investment from other partners with strategic business plan for annual revenue. Always remember: failing to prepare is preparing to fail! 2. Research the market It’s extremely important that you have referred to others’ business in car wash services. Try to visit as many places as you can to see how they set up their store, what kind of equipment they use, the number of customers they can attract and other tricks they use to promote their products. Learn from their both success and failure! You will also need to survey your potential customers whether they like particular type of service or what they dislike at current car wash services. This is a valuable source of reference for your business plan. 3. Pick a location The spot you choose to set up your business can decide you succeed or not. Don’t rush to choose a convenient place for you, everything must be considered in your customers’ views. A location near busy streets with regular vehicular movement is surely the place to go. You may find some popular filling stations in the neighborhood who are willing to give space for hire. Transports often patronizing these stations are probably your first customers. 4. Get approved by authorities Of course, you can’t build a car wash business without informing the authorities. Prepare every document related and reasonable explanations for possible questions. They won’t cause troubles if the drainage and gutter system at the spot can handle the sewag 5. Prepare the borehole or a well No need to say, the borehole or a well is a must for car wash business. Make sure water supply is maintained stable regardless of weather or power condition! Also, try to keep the borehole and well clean all the time, car owners will freak out if they see their vehicles washed with dirty water. 6. Buy the essentials To launch your services, these items can’t be missed: Overhead tanks to store water in scarcityGenerator to power the equipment and lightingsDetergents that are friendly to the car painting layerBuckets, brushes, mop and towels or car washing machine if affordable There might be some more to meet specific demands of customers but above are the least things needed for initial stage. Car wash business plan for smooth operation Starting a car wash business plan is the next thing into consideration. This should be easy if you have a business background or experiences in the field. On the other hand, you can take a look at some feasibility study or available plans online from those running car wash services. Most plans work for large-scale business while small-scale one is much easier to operate. Cost to start a car wash Car wash business cost varies in different types of business. As I mentioned earlier, a modest shop just requires around N200,000 to N500,000 to operate in the beginning. However, if you want to secure the success right from the first days, you must pay a lot more for business strategy consultancy, modern equipment, personnel training or even buying an already established car wash business. Hardly can we estimate the total amount of money spent on those kinds of stuff. Car wash machine There are a vast range of car wash machine for your reference, depending on your financial ability. They can be operated manually or automatically. The quality also differs due to the distinctive technology of each. As you may see, it can be as simple as this. Compact and easy to buy. The prices are just around N60,000 to N120,000. It can also be like this. You don’t need to touch in vehicles. The detergents then pressure water is sprayed from pipes in multi-angles to clean the exterior of the car. The average price of this touchless is from N5 million to N10 million. Each type of machine has its own price in Nigeria. The price range is from N60,000 (simplest pressure water manual machine), to several million for automatic machine as above pictures, or even up to N15 million (the entire set of automatic car wash machine) as the technology has no fixed price in itself. You should identify type of business, target customer and financial status to pick a reasonable investment for washing machine, then search straightly on the Internet for suitable equipment. Conclusion Start-up is never easy but setting a car wash business in Nigeria is not that difficult. We hope with this,, you have partly figured out what you need to do to run your business, as well as found out how much to open a car wash with car wash equipment prices in Nigeria.
