Galaxy Wash | Application Preview
Galaxy Wash is seeking government grants to fund the establishment of brand new laundromat locations. The proposed funding will primarily cover renovations, the installation of new commercial washing machines and dryers, infrastructure inspections and upgrades, and air conditioning units.
To grow the business, the marketing plan includes word-of-mouth referrals, effective signage, radio advertisements, and distributing flyers in nearby apartment complexes and housing areas.
The rationale for approving the funding emphasizes that laundromat services are essential and tend to remain in demand even during economic downturns, making it a resilient business. Galaxy Wash will operate 24 hours a day and employ 2 to 4 full-time staff to ensure continuous service. The addition of in-house "Wash and Fold" services and laundry pickup and delivery will cater to busy customers. The store aims to enhance convenience by allowing payments through an app, coins, or card readers, making transactions easier for patrons.
In terms of competition, the nearest competitor is just 0.06 miles away, but their inadequate parking and layout may deter customers. Galaxy Wash will offer over 100 paved parking spaces, addressing this issue. The 24-hour operation of Galaxy Wash, combined with its fresh, new setup, is expected to attract curiosity and foot traffic, setting it apart from competitors.

Self Identified Competition
My closes competitor is .06 mile away from me and the other 2 stores are of 2 miles away from my store. The closet competitor to me has terrible parking and my parking area is paved with concrete with over 100 parking spaces. My competitors parking area if only store front parking with one parking lane behind that one. therefore this causes there customer to park far away if busy and walk along way just to get in there door and carrying many loads of dirty laundry will cause frustration quickly generating more traffic to my store What make me different than my competitors is that all my stores will be a 24 hour operation and being it's a brand new operation will also generate the curiosity to come check us out.
