Why a Laundromat is a Smart Business Investment

There has never been a better time to be a laundromat owner! Laundromats are well-known to be recession-proof, pandemic-proof, year-round revenue drivers. In 2025, the nation's laundromats are expected to generate between $5 billion and $6.8 billion in revenue. Additionally, they offer a higher success rate than most alternative investment opportunities.

Is The Coin Laundry Business Right For You?

If you’re ready to take the next step in the laundry business, Coin-O-Matic is here to help!

Before we begin, it's important to understand the upfront investment necessary to begin a laundromat. Laundromat investors need to have at least $600,000 in liquid investment to begin in this lucrative field. It takes about $300 per sq. ft. to open a laundromat, and most average laundromats occupy between 2,000 and 5,000 sq. ft. If you're not outright purchasing your laundromat space and are looking at financing options instead, it is recommended you have 25%-40% of the purchase price in down payment and at least 3 months of operating expenses in hand at the time of purchase.

If this sounds like you, the next step is to find a location for your laundromat. If you’ve already got a real estate listing in mind, we provide laundromat location feasibility studies to help you determine whether or not it will be a successful laundromat spot. With a location secured, it’s time to start thinking about commercial laundry equipment and your layout! We’ve helped to build hundreds of laundromats, and the equipment, layout, and design of your store are all vital to your ongoing success. You’ll also need to think about financing so that you can maximize your cash flow at startup.
