Chapter 1

INTRODUCTION

Fabrics are essential to our daily lives. Their worth cannot be

underestimated as we use fabrics in most of our clothes, blanket, bed sheet, pillow

case, curtains, rugs, and more. One of the basic necessities of people is clothing. It

protects the body from varying temperatures and injuries. It also covers the body

not to expose delicate parts. For proper hygiene purposes, people tend to change

clothes more often. The Filipinos are keen when it comes to cleanliness and

proper hygiene. Washing of laundry is one of the oldest household chores, maybe

one of the most difficult. Traditionally, most housewives do the chores at home

including washing of laundry. But, because of workloads and changing lifestyles,

washing of clothes becomes a problem that resort to the utilization of laundry

services.

Laundry service is an easy and convenient business to put up. It may or may

not require high capital because it can be home-based or commercialized which can

target households, malls, inns, companies, dormitories, schools, and even

subdivisions where the people are condensed. With the help of technological

advancement, starting a laundry business is quite possible and uncomplicated.

BUSINESS OFFERINGS

The business concept of Wash Yours Laundry is typically heterogeneous.

It will offer quality services such as washing, drying, pressing and folding clients’

garments. It will also provide delivery for customers’ convenience. Furthermore,

it will also offer free WIFI for them to enjoy surfing the net while waiting for

UNIQUE QUALITY

Unlike other laundry businesses, Wash Yours is more of a customer and

service-oriented type. It values the time and money the customers spend for the

services it provides. It exhibits a Win-Win situation wherein both parties are

benefitted from one another. It is distinct because it provides quality services like

delivery, WIFI, and a self-service area.

Quality Services –Wash Yours Laundry will provide several services such as

washing, drying and folding clients’ garments. It will use quality and durable

equipment that can last longer to cater to customers’ needs. It will also use

affordable and quality hypoallergenic detergent powder and fabric conditioner to

make sure that the output is of good quality and safe to all types of clients.

Furthermore, Wash Yours will provide good customer service through attentive,

competent and honest staffs. Honesty is somewhat that the client will

momentously value. Customers may not always be right but it is easier to keep

them coming back than having new ones come to your store, thus honesty and

loyalty to customers are extremely important in a business like a laundry shop

Delivery- Wash Yours will offer delivery for customers’ convenience. With this,

clients can enjoy and use their time for some activities instead of waiting in the

shop for their laundry to be done.

Free WIFI -Internet can no longer be considered as a luxury because it is now

part of individuals’ daily lives considering that many transactions and businesses

3
are now being managed online. With this type of offering, clients will enjoy

browsing, posting on social media and continuing their businesses on line while

waiting for their laundry to be done.

Self-Service Area – Wash Yours will have an area for the clients who wish to rent

or pay for the equipment only. This is an area wherein customers can do their own

laundry. This type of service solves the usual complaints about traditional laundry

services.

BUSINESS STRUCTURE

Wash Yours Laundry is a sole proprietorship form of business to be

established and managed by Grace S. Hutalla, a sales specialist in SCPA

Corporation. Her starting capital is Php600, 000.00, to be loaned from the company

she is working with.

The sole proprietorship is the most common form of business because of

its simplicity, ease of operation, and minimal cost. To be ready for a business, a

sole proprietor only needs to register his or her name and secure local licenses.

However, a distinct disadvantage is that the owner of a sole proprietorship

remains personally accountable for all the business's liabilities. So, if a sole

proprietor company gets into financial difficulty, creditors can bring lawsuits

4
against the business owner. If such suits are successful, the owner will have to

remunerate the company liabilities with his or her own money.

VISION

To be known and become the preferred laundry service business in Quezon

province by 2025

MISSION

To establish a momentous relationship with customers and be responsive to their

needs to the best of our ability by providing them with a quality environment and

 Chapter 2
INDUSTRY

Many people may think that a laundry business is about clothes, but it’s

not. Laundry business is about people. It is service-type businesses, which like

others, customers must be treated well in order for them to return and patronize

your offerings.

If you are friendly and know how to handle customers well, your

customers will patronize your business. By talking to them, you will be able to

know their thoughts and learn their laundry needs and preferences. All this will

help you improve the quality of your service and you will attract more customers.

Laundry cleaning service in the Philippines can be illustrated as a business firm

that accepts clothes and other household items that need to undergo cleaning

services. These cleaning services are washing, drying, pressing, dry cleaning and

folding. Customers assume and expect laundry shops to perform the full laundry

operation and have their clothes ready for pick-up or delivery.

As stated in the feasibility study of Cabelles, et al. (2009), laundry

industry is a strong and energetic business. This kind of industry is really seen on

the go for the target audience because of convenience and practicability.

According to Manahan (2016), laundry cleaning service is a rising

business in the Philippines based on recent studies and researchers. There are a

constant growth and progress in the laundry cleaning service industry in line with

8
urban economic development. As a population continuously grows in urban areas

along with the increase of husbands and wives earners, the requirement for

laundry service is high in connection to these economic indicators. As Philippine

urban areas are constantly getting more condensed by population, there will be a

larger demand for quality laundry services.

As the demand rises, the competition also escalates. Competition shifts the

technology innovation in this industry at a swifter rate producing new

developments resulting in growth and profitability. Technological development

and evolutions are critical aspects of modernization. Customers continuously need

services delivered with satisfying outcomes and convenient facilities.

Modernization of the industry would benefit communities thru the businesses’

effectiveness.

MARKETING ASPECT

MARKET DESCRIPTION

Marketing is a fundamental element of a business success. It encompasses

production and distribution of products and services. The market is vital to this

study to discern if the proposed endeavor is feasible or not.

To be effective, firm that deals with consumers on a daily basis must not

only be customer-driven but customer-obsessed. This is because customers are the

lifeblood of the company. Without them, we would not possibly exist. The target

market should be given primacy since income will generate from them. An

evident apprehension of demand and supply analysis, systematized and accurate

interpretation of data and recognition of the target market are the essentials of any

feasibility study.

Nowadays limited space has become a huge problem when it comes to

washing & drying laundries. Most households likewise business establishments do

not have enough space to sundry their laundries.

Table 1 Number of Target Markets/ Households

12
Note: The number of households is based on actual data which is gathered by the

researchers while doing the survey and interview.

To compute for the sample size to be used for the survey, the researchers

used the Slovin’s formula. The researchers computed the sample size of 96

respondents with the maximum 10% error of tolerance and 90% confidence

level. Slovin’s formula is a random sampling technique formula to estimate

sampling size. A confidence level tells how reliable a measure is. Common

standards used by researchers are 90%, 95% and 99%. A margin of error tells you

how much error surrounds a measure. It’s a percentage that describes how much

the opinion of the sample you survey is likely to deviate from the total population.

Computation of sample size through Slovin’s formula;

n = N / (1 + Ne^2)

Where: n = Number of samples

N = Total population

e = Margin of error

n= 2163
1 + [(2163) (0.10) (0.10)]

n= 96

Manila Road namely, Snow White, Doña Labandera and Red Tub Laundry. From

the figure, it is noticeable that the farthermost distance between Wash Yours

Laundry and Snow White Laundry Shop is 4.2 kilometers and will take 8 minutes

travel using public or service vehicle as a mode of transportation.

14
 Table 2 Services of Direct Competitors

The table shows that the three competitors have different price points when

it comes to the services they offer. Also, they are using different varieties of

detergent powder which also make them distinct from one another. When it comes

to pick-up date, all of them have allocated 48 hours before a customer can pick-up

15
their done laundries. Aside from this, all of them have no WIFI and do not offer

delivery service.

machines Wash Yours can perform. The number of kilos of laundry Wash Yours

2,106) kilos that will never be provided. Because the demand for our services is

higher than what we can provide, there is great chance to last in the business.

 MANAGEMENT & PERSONAL ASPECT

MANAGEMENT AND PERSONAL DESCRIPTION

Form of Ownership

1. The business will be a sole proprietorship.

Because of simplicity, ease of setup, and nominal cost, the sole

proprietorship becomes a prevalent type of business. The owner needs only to

register his or her name and secure local licenses, and the business is ready for

operation. A clear inconvenience, however, is that the owner of a sole

proprietorship continues to be personally liable for all the business's debts. So, if

ever the business suffers an imminent loss and liabilities, creditors or lenders can

bring lawsuits against the business owner.

 CHAPTER 4
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

CONCLUSIONS

Based on the findings, the following conclusions were drawn.

1. From the demographic profile; most of the respondents were married

female ages 26-35 years of age and residing in Leveriza Heights Subdivision.

Most of the respondents were government employees with the total household

income of P11, 000 to P20, 000. They are not the head of their families which are

composed of 3-4 members. They owned their houses and been living there for 5

years and over.

2. Households own washing machines. They do their own laundries three

times a week. Some also bring their 3-5 kilos of laundries in laundry shops

because the shops offer them fast service. For the households, they are in favor of

having a laundry shop in their location. They wish to avail the P24/ kilo Wash-

Dry-Fold service for a minimum 6 kilos and P74/ kilo Wash-Dry-Press-Fold

service for a minimum of 6 kilos also. They also want to avail the pick-up and

delivery service for P16.00 within 3 kilometers plus P5 for every additional 1

kilometer.

3. When it comes to establishments, St. Jude Hotel is already operating

over a year while Max’s is already operating 11 years and above. St. Jude has its

76
own area for laundry that’s why it does its own 30-40 kilos laundries but

sometimes avails services from a laundry shop. Max’s has no laundry area that’s

why its 20-30 kilos laundries are being done by a laundry shop. Both of the

establishments’ laundries are being done three times a week. St Jude Hotel’s

laundries are usually composed of tablecloths, curtains, blankets, table napkins,

bed sheets & pillow cases while the other establishment’s laundries are composed

of tablecloths, curtains, and table napkins only. Although they have their own

service providers which offer cheap price & free delivery, they are still in favor of

having a laundry shop near their vicinities. And according to them, they may avail

wash-dry-fold and pick-up & delivery services.

RECOMMENDATIONS

The study is feasible and can be established near its target market because

the location is surrounded by most households inside the subdivisions. Each house

in any subdivision has limited space only which makes it difficult to sundry the

laundries especially the blankets, curtains and bed sheets.

The study suggests that instead of offering both full-service and self-

service laundry, it must focus on full-service first since most of the markets prefer

the former. The survey results showed that most of the markets don’t want to do

their own laundries. Later on, Wash Yours Laundry can expand and include self-

service laundry as an additional offering.

77
 When it comes to sales projection, full-service laundry on Wash-Dry-

Press-Fold has higher projected service income than Wash-Dry-Fold service so

Wash Yours Laundry must promote Wash-Dry-Press-Fold service by giving

loyalty cards which will offer discounts to members who will avail this type of

service only.
