It’s Not Just Metro Cities - Laundry Businesses Are Witnessing Impressive Growth in Urban Towns as Well

Noida (Uttar Pradesh) [India], December 30: The Indian laundry and dry-cleaning industry is experiencing a gradual yet powerful transformation at the same time. Even though metro cities have always been the center of attention in discussions about organized laundry services, a new growth story is now taking place in Tier-II and Tier-III urban towns. The demand for professional laundry solutions is rising due to factors like higher disposable incomes, new lifestyles, and more awareness of hygiene—all these factors push the demand for laundry services beyond the big cities.

Organised laundry brands are now quickly coming in to wash the clothes of the people living in the urban towns—previously, these towns were relying on traditional washermen or informal setups. These towns are experiencing a change in consumer expectations, where the main factors are convenience, fabric care, and timely service, in addition to affordability. With the increase in the number of working professionals, nuclear families, students, and small businesses, the demand for dependable laundry services has also grown significantly.

As per the estimates of the industry, the organized laundry market in India is likely to witness a growth of more than 20% CAGR in the next few years, with non-metro areas playing a crucial role in this growth phase. Urbanization, time constraints in taking care of household chores, and the exposure to global service standards through digital platforms are some of the factors driving the adoption of organized laundries in smaller cities.

Urban towns are becoming laundry hotspots due to their unique scenario

The laundry shops can set up business in urban towns because there are several advantages associated with these locations. The land and operational costs are not as high as in the bigger cities; the competition is still quite limited, and customer loyalty is quite often a powerful factor in the long run by providing quality service over and over again. Besides, B2B demand is created by the local hotels, hostels, hospitals, salons, and small businesses that are shortly going to rely upon the laundry services more and more.
