From an initial idea to a long-term successful business - iWash laundry in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, is a true example of how a young and ambitious entrepreneur can realize his dream with tried-and-tested advice.

This commercial laundry has been operating successfully for eight years already. Clients can choose whether to use the devices themselves or leave their laundry to the employees, and this combination of services has proven to be a great choice.

Young and ambitious

Youthful and ambitious, Mr. Mahir had the aspiration to become an entrepreneur.

"During college, I started thinking about starting my own business. I analyzed the market in Bosnia and Herzegovina, especially in Sarajevo, and concluded that demand for this type of business exists," he recalls.

Without any experience in the laundry business, he decided to venture out and turn his idea into reality. The first step on this path was to seek the support of an expert team. It has proven to be crucial in achieving long-term success for him.

"The journey from the initial idea to the opening of the laundry took about two years. Every start brings with it certain challenges, from the very collection of certain documents needed to start a business to the search for space. I regularly followed the public tenders of the municipality, which has its own business premises available for lease, and in the end, everything fell into place", Mr. Mahir says.

Choosing the ideal equipment

According to advice tested in practice, he opted for an equipment combination that would ideally meet the needs of his commercial laundry. It includes:

"The installation of the devices went quickly and smoothly. I was excited to start with the work," he points out with a smile.

Now, after years of work and experience with LG professional devices, Mr. Mahir can confidently recommend them to anyone who plans to start their own laundry:

"LG professional laundry devices are reliable, easy to use, and very efficient," he says.

A solution for everyone

"My goal from the beginning is for iWash to meet the needs of different user profiles, and this is the main reason why I decided on the commercial laundry variant," says Mr. Mahir and adds:

"In this way, all groups are included - the self-service option ensures speed and convenience for those in a hurry, while others can entrust their laundry to our professional staff. The result is satisfied clients who remain loyal to us. We also offer a laundry delivery service, mostly used by restaurants."

When asked what clients come with most often, he reveals: "That would be shirts and larger items, like blankets, duvets, and pillows, which don't fit in the drum of their household washers and dryers."

Finally, Mr. Mahir has a message for everyone who is thinking about entering the laundry business:

“Do not hesitate! It takes a little patience, but the results will surely come!”
