Youth-run mobile carwash in Joburg north offers all the convenience and no hassle
Local student and graduate run mobile carwash
A local student and graduate combined their business smarts and passion for cars to solve a problem in the lives of busy nine to fivers across the Johannesburg north community.
With the help of their mobile carwash, Wash on Wheels, Khenso Makelana and Justin Lekgeu have made getting your car cleaned all that easier.
“We simply wanted to make things easier for our customers so they wouldn’t have to wait in lengthy lines at the car wash and could have their cars washed in the comfort of their own homes,” said Makelana.
While the business may only be just shy of a month old, the pair continues to work towards building their cliental list with excellent service.
Makelana added that running a business alongside completing his studying may be challenging at times but it was a challenge he was confident to take on.
“Most of our clients schedule a car wash for during the weekend so it makes it easier to juggle school and work, and if one person is busy or has school or a submission for school, we can get someone to replace them for the day,” said Makelana.
He is currently studying towards his BA in logistics and supply chain while Lekgeu is a recent graduate in software development.
Makelana said one of the most rewarding things since starting the business was the ability to not only learn how to operate the business but realising just how much work went into running it successfully.
“Knowing how difficult it is to work for money and how satisfying it is once all the hard work has been put in, I think these are qualities we can apply to live in the future.”
