This laundromat serves a year-round and seasonal customer base in a North Carolina mountain resort market. It earns from self-service, wash & fold, and pickup & delivery, and its commercial accounts add recurring revenue. The machines accept coins and credit cards, and customers can book and pay for services online. A new owner could finish converting it to a fully cashless operation.
A good mix of standard and large-capacity machines, including a dedicated wash & fold area, handles the bulky loads and linens that are in high demand in a tourism and vacation-rental market. The customer area is comfortable, with ample parking in a busy retail center. A small staff runs day-to-day operations, so the business suits an owner-operator or a semi-absentee investor.
