Help Nigeria's laundries grow.
WashCare runs the day for laundries across Nigeria. Now we want to help them get the machines they need. Back the Equipment Fund, or talk to us about investing and partnering.
Where we are
From one laundry to every laundry.
Every step was built with a reason: to make a laundry owner's day calmer. Here is the road so far, and what comes next.
7 of 9 steps done · We are here: Partners and the Equipment Fund
Built for one real laundry
The first line of code was written for Lux Laundry, a working shop with real orders and real customers.
A door for every laundry
Any laundry in Nigeria can sign up and get its own private workspace, kept apart from every other.
Five languages, and a phone app
English, Pidgin, Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa, so the whole team can use it. The app installs on Android.
Named WashCare, at washcare.app
A name and a home of its own, with email that reaches customers from the shop.
Open for business
One plan with every feature, paid through Paystack, and a one-minute film that shows how it works.
Money made clear
VAT, expenses and a morning summary, so an owner knows where the money went.
Partners and the Equipment Fund
Backers help laundries get machines at low prices. Investors and partners can talk to us.
The first machines go out
The Equipment Fund buys its first washers and irons, and laundries get them at a low price.
100 laundries on WashCare
A hundred shops across Nigeria running their day from one calm screen.
The laundry community
Small shops doing big work.
Laundries keep homes, offices, hotels and hospitals clean. Most are small businesses run by an owner and a few staff who know their customers by name.
They carry a city's clothes
Office shirts for Monday, school uniforms, wedding outfits, hotel sheets. A good laundry is trusted with things people care about.
Machines cost the most
A washer, a dryer or a steam iron can cost more than a month of takings. Without them a shop turns work away, or washes by hand and falls behind.
Built with them, not for them
WashCare started inside a working laundry. Owners tell us what slows them down, and we change the software to fit how they work.
The Equipment Fund
Back the machines that keep laundries going.
Your backing helps laundries on WashCare buy washers, dryers and irons at a low price. We buy together, so each shop pays less than it would alone.
