Car washes per month. Car wash room

So, you are thinking about opening a car wash. I don’t know what exactly prompted you to do this - an old dream, a desire to start your own business, a lucky coincidence, or a desire to invest money securely. But whatever it is, you're looking in the right direction. A car wash is a simple, stable and profitable business that you can get into regardless of whether you have experience in entrepreneurship or not. And so that you clearly understand what's what, let's talk in more detail about all the pros and cons of the car wash business.

Car wash is a guaranteed demand

You yourself have probably seen queues at car washes, so there is no need to convince you that you will always have customers. One of the most common mistakes start-up entrepreneurs is that they want to find some magical idea. Such that there are no competitors and that you can single-handedly row money with a shovel. This is a crazy position. You can give out a hundred various ideas business where you have no competitors. Well, for example, open the production of square wheels for cars. I guarantee there will be no competitors. But who will buy them from you?

The most best strategy to open your business - see what people already willingly buy, and sell them exactly that. In no case should you reinvent the wheel - it's expensive and unpromising. Why do so many people spend their time looking for magic idea business? Yes, simply because they are either afraid of the word "competition", or they consider themselves smarter than others. Competition is good. This means that people are already used to buying something and you do not need to explain why they need another incomprehensible crap.

Now in the car wash business expanse. There were no commercial car washes in the USSR, because there were few cars. And over the past 15 years, not so many free enterprise car washes have been created. And today the country simply does not have enough car washes to wash everyone.

Take, for example, my hometown of St. Petersburg. Today, about 350 car washes operate in St. Petersburg (this number also includes "garage" car washes). On average, there are three posts per car wash (in garages - most often one post). In a day, about 20 cars can be passed through one manual washing post (this, by the way, is from 3 to 8 thousand rubles in revenue). At the same time, the city has more than 820,000 officially registered cars that need to be washed at least once a month, and most people want to wash their car much more often.

But even if we take car washing once a month as a basis for calculations, St. Petersburg car washes can provide only 76% of the required volume of services. That is why there are long queues in front of car washes. And the number of cars is growing much faster, than the number of washes. And this trend will continue in the next 5 years.

Growth in sales of new cars continues in Russia. Record sales dynamics are registered annually. For example, in the first 6 months of 2008, about 1 million 400 thousand new cars were sold in Russia. Compared to the same period last year, car sales in Russia grew by more than a third, while the monthly sales volume exceeded 250,000 cars. And, as I said, car washes open much less than necessary with such a powerful increase in the number of cars. Therefore, a car wash is a business that guarantees a stream of profits.

Liquidity and investment attractiveness

These are especially important qualities of a car wash in conditions economic crisis. Why? Everything is quite simple. You are probably already aware of what is happening in the United States and what shocks the American financial system is experiencing. The largest companies are going bankrupt, banks are bursting, there is a panic in the stock market. And this is just the beginning of the crisis. What happens when the US defaults on its government bonds is hard to imagine.

The crisis has reached our stock market as well. Simply because the markets are closely related. And everything that could previously be safely invested in is becoming less and less attractive every day. Therefore, the main question that now confronts investors is: what to invest in? In bonds? It is very doubtful, because there are already cases of defaults on bonds. In shares? A very big risk. In mutual funds? Also a dubious prospect. In gold? But on the stock exchange they trade in "paper" gold, that is, they sell only receipts against gold.

All investments in "virtual" assets are now very risky. “Virtual” assets are those that, in fact, are not backed by real goods and, in fact, do not give real income after investments. All income from investments in virtual assets is derived from speculation. Bought a piece of paper cheap - sold more expensive. This is possible only as long as the pieces of paper are in demand and value, but when the wave of bankruptcies covers the most large companies and their shares are no longer worth anything, there is nothing to speculate with.

Therefore, now, when the crisis is already on the threshold, the most reliable investment of money will be an investment in real production. That is, something that is highly likely to remain liquid no matter what happens. Because the "virtual" money that is on the account is much easier to reset than real liquid values. As in the 90s: a person had 5,000 rubles on his account, which could buy a car, and it became 5,000 rubles, which could buy a couple of loaves of bread. And if a person still bought a car, he would not lose his money. Therefore, money needs to be urgently invested in own business, and in one that will have a guaranteed profit regardless of the crisis.

And this is true both if you have your own savings and if you are looking for an investor. An intelligent investor always tries to minimize risks and have guarantees to exit the project with a profit. By and large, the goal of many investors is to build a business and sell it profitably within two to three years. And what is the situation with the sale of car washes now?

It turns out that car washes are one of the most popular businesses for sale in this moment. Here, for example, statistics on requests to buy and sell a business from BizZONA.ru:

Buying a business:

Beauty salons - 14%;

Internet - 9.4%;

car washes - 6.5%;

Cafe - 5.0%;

Saunas - 4.2%;

Shops - 3.6%;

Dental clinics – 2,6 %;

Flowers - 2.6%;

Recruitment agencies – 1,8 %;

Baths - 1.4%. Business sale:

Beauty salons - 4.96%;

Internet - 3.28%;

car washes - 1.04%;

Cafe - 4.24%;

Saunas - 1.36%;

Shops - 11.6%;

Dental clinics - 1.04%;

Flowers - 0.32%;

Recruitment agencies - 1.04%;

Baths - 0.72%.

Thus, a car wash is a great investment. Especially if it is a newly built car wash. And if on own site earth, then generally excellent. In company Sonny's I was told the following case: in Ufa, after six months of successful operation of the first washing complex in Bashkiria, serious bankers approached the owners and offered a large sum for the assignment of the washing building to them under new bank. Land, building - all this is liquid. A ready-made car wash business on a turnkey basis will be doubly liquid.

Transparency and ease of management

A car wash is a simple business. There are no complex technical processes, no strong dependence on suppliers, no big problems with finding personnel.

The main profile of my activity is advising the owners of car services, so I have the opportunity to compare the complexity of these two businesses. Washing cars is much easier than fixing them. The technological complexity of washing a car is much less, and there are no such problems with finding personnel and equipment as when opening a car service. In general, in itself, this activity is quite simple, if you know what and how. You do not need any special technical education, you do not need to understand the design of machines, etc. It's like washing dishes in the kitchen, only more dishes. I am more than sure that everyone can open a car wash.

High profitability

The minimum profitability of a car wash is 30%. And you need to try very hard to make it so low. The normal figure is 50%. The main operating costs are salaries and taxes. Sometimes there is also rent and utility bills, but this already depends heavily on the specific case and the type of car wash (automatic or manual). On the different types washes different costs.

Ability to clone

Business cloning is a separate big topic, but I will say a few words about it. If you have opened one car wash, “fixed” all business processes and achieved stability, you will have simply unlimited opportunities for a sharp expansion of your business. What is done and documented once can be easily repeated as many times as you like. There are several ways: creating a network or selling clones. In the first case, you can continue to open your car washes under a single brand, in the second case, you can sell "business in a box" to other entrepreneurs. We do not yet have networks of car washes as such, as well as offers for the sale of a “business in a box”. Moreover, the sale of a “business in a box” (in the West it is called business opportunity) brings order more money than actually washing cars. True, there is one subtlety: there is a very tricky sales process. But if you fix it - it's a gold mine. By the way, there is another option: creating a franchise. But it is even more difficult, albeit profitable.

We talked about the obvious advantages of the car wash business, let's move on to the cons. Otherwise, it would have been a complete scam.

Bureaucracy. Long term building from scratch. Obtaining permits

If we talk about building a car wash from scratch, the main problem is to get land for development and coordinate the location of the car wash. AT big cities this is generally tight, and a lot of money will have to be spent. For example, in Moscow, renting a land plot from the city, building a manual car wash for four or five posts, and putting it into operation can cost from $500,000 to several million. AT small towns with this, of course, easier, but also have to run. In the case of rent, everything is cheaper, there are no such huge expenses. Depending on the region, a car wash in a rented premises can be opened with even $20,000.

How long does it take to open a car wash?

There is no single answer to this question, it all depends on the specific city and the specific situation.

Sometimes land acquisition alone can take two years, sometimes a new built car wash can start operating as early as a year after the land application is submitted. The biggest time investment will be on:

Land allocation - up to 24 months;

Project approval – up to 6 months;

Construction and commissioning - up to 3 months.

Again, these are all approximate figures. Very often, especially in small towns, car washes begin to be built without approvals, and all permits are obtained along the way. The same is with renting - the premises are being reconstructed and in the process they receive all the necessary paperwork. AT major cities this will not work, but in small ones it sometimes works if there are connections and acquaintances.

But the trends are such that they are starting to enforce regulations more and more strictly, and if you don’t want an already finished sink to stand dead because someone suddenly didn’t give permission, it’s better to do everything right away in accordance with the law. On average, the entire process of building a new car wash takes one and a half to two years. If you rent a room - up to one year.

What problems do you need to be prepared for?

If you are going to build a car wash from scratch, First of all, there will be a problem with the land. This problem is especially acute in large cities. By and large, it is because of this that so few new car washes are opened. If you do not own a plot, the only option to find land is to rent it from the state. But, as you understand, officials will not give anything to the first person they meet just like that.

Most often, the sale of leasehold rights to a piece of land takes place in the form of an auction. That is, at least serious money will be needed. The right to lease a plot for a small car wash in Moscow can cost several hundred thousand dollars. At the same time, of course, part of this money will go into the pockets of officials. Moreover, it is not a fact that you will get the site just because you have money. In this case, personal connections and acquaintance with the right people. In small towns, prices are, of course, lower, but the factor of personal connections also plays a significant role.

The next problem is the approval of the construction of a car wash on the selected plot of land. In Moscow, for example, it is required to obtain more than 60 different approvals from many authorities. Moreover, if at least one of them does not agree on the project, you will not be able to build a sink. In order for everything to go smoothly, money will also be needed for “gifts” to officials. By and large, the costs of obtaining land and approvals exceed the costs of building a car wash itself.

Another problem that can “eat through” a huge hole in the budget is connecting to engineering networks: plumbing and electricity. It often happens that the cost of summing up communications exceeds the cost of construction.

If you would like to rent a space, first of all, there will be a problem with the search suitable premises. In principle, if you try, you can find a room. After that, the main task is to obtain permission to reconstruct the premises for a car wash. Here, again, it will be necessary to coordinate the project and run through numerous instances.

Prospects for the development of the washing business

I am often asked the question: how to evaluate the profitability of a car wash? By and large, everything is quite simple here. The minimum profitability can be calculated by observing the already operating car washes. You can spend a few days and see how many cars come to car washes during the day. This will give you approximate download numbers. Here, of course, there is a dependence on the season and the weather, but these will be real numbers. Then look at prices. operating car wash and calculate the approximate cost of the average check. Depending on the city and type of car wash, this can be 150–400 rubles. Multiply the number of customers by the average check and get the approximate amount of daily revenue.

To be honest, the results of your research will most often say one thing: a car wash is profitable. For example, a car wash for four posts in Moscow with an average bill of 300 rubles. brings about $30 thousand of profit per month. At total costs ah, for the opening of such a car wash at $ 850 thousand, the payback will be somewhere around 2.5–3 years.

Of course, if you rent a room with a small initial investment, you can recoup the costs in a year. Here again, there is a dependence on the city, on the type of car wash, on the contingent of customers, on the number of cars in the city, etc.

Take, for example, a manual car wash with two posts. In a day, 20-30 cars can pass through one post. Total 40-60 per day. With an average check of 200 rubles. it turns out 8-12 thousand rubles. revenue, of which about 35% will go to staff. Thus, the dirty profit will be 5200–7800 rubles. in a day. The figures, of course, are averaged, they do not take into account orders for dry cleaning and polishing, weather and season, but they give an idea. By the way, the problem of the low season is solvable - you just need to build the right marketing.

For example, I will give short reviews car wash business in several cities.

Permian

There are currently about 50 car washes in Perm, most of them around the clock. The set of services is standard: full washing (internal and external), cleaning and dry cleaning of the interior, body polishing, engine washing, washing of rugs, thresholds, wheels, liquid wax, wiping the dashboard and plastic, lubricating locks.

Car washes in the city center have a large flow of customers and high prices, without differing good quality. And on the outskirts for less money you can wash your car better. What to do, demand exceeds supply.

The difference in prices at different car washes is up to 40%. Approximate price range:

Washing + interior cleaning - 200–250 rubles;

Interior cleaning - 80-150 rubles;

Body wash - 100–150 rubles;

Engine wash - from 150 rubles.

In general, the market is in its infancy, there is no competition as such.

Barnaul

There are about 65 car washes in Barnaul. There is no competition as such, demand exceeds supply, and in order to wash the car on the weekend, customers have to queue. Most of the operating car washes are located in residential areas. There is one non-contact gantry truck wash. One or two new car washes open in the city every year.

Nizhny Novgorod

About 40 work separately in Nizhny standing car washes, not counting those that are part of gas stations and car services. The number of cars in the city is growing by 15% per year. According to the most rough estimates, the city needs the same number of new car washes, as there are queues everywhere. Most sinks are manual, automatic 5-6 pieces. The set of services is standard. Average check- 300 rubles. The monthly profit of a standard car wash is $4,000–8,000.

Generally speaking, all calculations should be reflected in the business plan on paper. If there are specific figures, we can draw specific conclusions. We will talk about how to create a business plan a little later, but for now let's move on to the topic of start-up capital.

The high profitability of car washes has become the reason that the business in this direction is becoming more promising and attractive. Experts say that currently Russian market car wash services is experiencing another round of development. Our topic today is a car wash from scratch: a business plan and organizational issues.

general information

Our country is largely oriented towards the West. Let's turn to his experts and on this issue. Europeans believe that one portal sink should be for every 50,000 people. If these data are used in terms of our country, then we will understand that the Russian car wash market is still far from being saturated. Although the initial boom in washing stations has passed, the business has not yet been fully mastered. This applies to both the range of services and their quality level.

What to expect

Experts say that the profitability of car washes reaches 30-40%, and often more. high performance. On average, a business pays off in a period of one to one and a half years. When installing expensive equipment (portal or tunnel), you should expect a period of up to 3-4 years. But at the same time, much higher financial turnover will be formed.

When renting premises for a car wash, the entry threshold for this business segment is $20,000-30,000.

Car wash: where to start, how to succeed

The described type of business, like any other, requires a thorough analysis of the market. In order to open a car wash from scratch, you need to draw up detailed business plan. You will rely on it when organizing the case. There are several main steps to follow Special attention when planning.

Documents and registration

Registration with the tax authority is the first thing you need to open a car wash. You can register as an individual entrepreneur or LLC. With the first option, it is possible significant savings on taxes. In the future, you will need permission from the SES authorities, fire brigade from the district administration. The whole procedure is quite lengthy and may require a considerable amount of time, therefore, having decided to implement the project, please be patient.

Place

The payback and profitability of car washes largely depend on the right place. First of all, you need to decide what will be the bet in your business - on high performance or on a wide range of services provided. Let's see why this is so important.

Highways that connect sleeping areas and business centers, routes at the entrance and exit from the city, are good place for high performance car wash. This is due to the fact that the client here will be more casual than regular.

In such places, it is good to install portal or tunnel stations, the service speed in which is many times higher than in manual ones. A potential client, seeing that the line of cars is small, will quickly decide in favor of using the services of your car wash. When locating a station on highways, you need to understand that it will be quite difficult to attract regular customers.

Many simply do not want to drive through the whole city, even knowing that your services are an order of magnitude faster than in the washing stations closest to the house. Betting on high traffic, you must equip the car wash with the most powerful equipment, but sacrifice the ability to place additional services at the station. Experience shows that they often remain unclaimed.

The situation is different if the owner wishes to provide his station with the maximum range of services. In this case, it is best to choose a place in one of the prosperous sleeping areas. Here the focus is on attracting regular customers living in the nearest streets and districts. In addition to car washing, the client can order the following services:

• interior cleaning;
• stain removal;
• engine wash;
• tire blackening;
• panel polishing, etc.

Powerful washing equipment in quiet areas of the city will pay for itself for too long, so many entrepreneurs install manual car washes for several posts. The client understands that it will take more time to wash the car, but arrives at the station knowing that there is an opportunity to order additional services.

In addition to the above two points, a car wash can be located near the gas station, station Maintenance, large shopping center. Pay attention to convenient access and parking for cars.

We must not forget that when choosing a place you need to take into account SES requirements. Car washes should not be located closer than 70 meters in relation to residential buildings.

Rent or construction?

It is good when the premises used for business belong to its owner. But this is not always possible. The financial costs of building a building are significant. Not every novice entrepreneur will master them. In addition to financial investments, you need to go through more than a dozen instances in order to obtain all permissions and approvals for the construction of an object.

Another option is to rent a plot of land and order it from specialized companies finished structure car washes on required amount posts. This is also a rather expensive method, since the cost of a turnkey two-portal station starts from 2 million rubles. You can rent a room suitable for washing and equip it with the necessary equipment.

Types of car washes

Before answering the question of how much it costs to build a car wash from scratch, let's understand their types. The final cost figure will depend on the equipment of the station.

Step by step plan to open a car wash

In our country, the number of car owners is growing from year to year, and the demand for car wash services is growing accordingly. The number of middle class people who are the main customers of car washes is also growing. These are mostly middle managers and entrepreneurs.

Our car wash will be located in close proximity to a gas station with a large flow of cars. This is a very good location, so the organization does not need additional advertising. The population of the area where our car wash will be located is about 30 thousand people.

The closest competitors are at a respectful distance. There is no such object within a radius of 500 meters.

The presence of two boxes for washing a car will allow you to avoid a long queue and, accordingly, exclude the possibility of a client leaving for the nearest competitor. Let's move on to calculating the estimated revenue of the organization.

It is assumed that the average passability of the car wash will be about 30 cars per day. That is, 15 cars for each washing box. With an average check of 350 rubles, daily revenue will be about 10,500 rubles, per month - 315,000 rubles.

However, take into account the seasonality in the car wash business. The peak of revenue occurs in spring and autumn, and the decline begins in summer and winter:

What equipment to choose

Car wash equipment will need the following:

• washing chamber;
• overpass;
• ventilation, water treatment and lighting systems;
• power supply and heat supply systems;
• washing equipment;

equipment for supplying water and waste liquids. Usually all the equipment is already included in the complex, but if you want to provide additional services, you will need to buy the equipment necessary for these types of services.

What documents are needed to open a car wash

First of all, you need to register an individual entrepreneur or LLC with the tax authorities. If you plan to provide services only to individuals, you can stop at an individual entrepreneur. If you are going to serve businesses, it is better to register an LLC.

Which OKVED to indicate when registering a car wash

You must also select the OKVED code for business registration. For a car wash, you can use the OKVED code 45.20.3- “Wash vehicles... ". In this case, this is the most suitable OKVED, and you can stop at it.

Do I need a permit to open a car wash?

You will also need permits from the Chamber of Architecture, SES, State Fire Supervision, environmental service, as well as a copy of the project, certified by the BTI. Documents must be submitted to the local administration, which, after their verification, will allow the construction.

Every day, with every kilometer, any car is polluted to one degree or another. We are all used to seeing car washes for SUVs, minibuses and cars, but there are sorely lacking places where you can wash a truck 20 meters long. Not every production, and even more so food warehouse will not let a dirty car into its territory, such requirements for heavy vehicles are more common in warehouse food depots. If for cars car wash is available in almost every city, but in the case of heavy trucks, the statistics leave much to be desired.

The main consumers are truck drivers, bus drivers, and, in the future, car fleets. Since the flight can last 5 or more days (sometimes up to 2-3 weeks), drivers have to live in their cars. There they eat, sleep and live. Naturally, the cabin must be in order and cleanliness. But they don’t forget about the outside of the truck either, which is why they use the services of car washes.

The essence of a business idea is to satisfy the needs of drivers and owners freight transport in the washing of heavy vehicles, tractors, buses.

Experts say that a car wash as a business is a very profitable business. And in order for it to bring real income, there are a number of important points to be taken into account.

It is assumed that cash will be provided by the bank, or investors, also so that the costs of starting a business are not high, a portal car wash can be leased.

Capital investments- 2740.8 thousand rubles.

Net profit- 409 thousand rubles.

Payback period- 6-7 months

Profitability of sales - 68,2%.

2. Description of the business, product or service

It is planned to start a business with one portal installation worth 2.5 million rubles. After the payback of the first installation, it is planned to install a second portal sink.

After two installations start to bring stable income, it is planned to install a stationary sink with the same gantry installation. It will be possible to expand the range of services, for example, to open a tire fitting, because you always need to develop.

Also open a small auto parts store for consumables, i.e., these are motor oils, filters, various liquids such as antifreeze, antifreeze, mixtures for diesel kindling, etc. Later, open a car wash for cars.

3. Description of the market

This business is just beginning to gain momentum in our country. And it is developing at the moment is not very fast. It is not very developed in our city either.

Washing trucks as a business is not only a promising, but also a highly profitable enterprise. Profit from such activities can significantly exceed the income received from car washes for cars.
