5 Tips For Starting A Dry Cleaning Business

Posted on January 21, 2013 by lfgadmin
Reply

A successful dry cleaning business can certainly be a satisfying and financially rewarding small business. It is a relatively recession-proof business that can provide you with additional income through services such as dry cleaning delivery, alterations and clothing repair.

A well-run dry cleaning business can provide predicable, and steady income; however, the decision to devote oneself to this undertaking should not be taken lightly.  Machinery alone can cost about $150,000, and other up front expenses such as a storefront and other necessary business equipment including furniture and supplies can add up to a significant start-up investment.

The following is a checklist of considerations to make when starting a dry cleaning business:

  1. A business plan: This business plan will help you outline everything you have to do and provide you with an idea of how to reach your goals. A business plan will also help you share your ideas with potential investors who may provide you with the capital needed to start your business, including the direct financing and leasing for all types of new and used essential dry cleaning equipment.
  2. Location, location, location:Despite a perfect business plan, excellent service and impeccable customer relations, convenience can be the sole reason for a customer deciding to choose your dry cleaners over the competition. Select a location that is easily accessible from a major roadway, with plenty of customer parking. Choosing a location that is near other amenities, such as restaurants or shopping, can be a way to introduce new customers to your business and ensure their return.
  3. Licensing, permits, and insurance: The dry cleaning industry is affected by a number of major environmental regulations. Different methods of dry cleaning require various kinds of equipment, and if you choose to do your cleaning on-site, the method you use may be dictated by your store location. Make sure you adhere to all local, state, and federal guidelines.
  4. Dry cleaning experience: Understanding the day-to-day inner workings of a dry cleaning business is essential to having a successful business. It is important to either have extensive working experience in a dry cleaning environment, or have the ability to hire someone to manage your business that has that depth of experience.
  5. Equipment: When starting a dry cleaning business, you can buy new or used machinery, or you can lease equipment. Dry cleaning requires specialty equipment, and you will need to invest in a variety of machines such as conveyors, laundry hot leads, foam finishers, shirt finishers, and other machinery.

Economic Recovery Means Better Times Ahead For The Logging Industry

Posted on January 8, 2013 by lfgadmin

A boost in this industry will require robust logging equipment financing options

The logging industry is essential for producing vital paper products, plywood, and lumber. Equipment Financing for the Logging IndustryIndustry activities include felling trees and providing sawmills with saw logs and wood pulp mills with wood chips and pulpwood.

Business had been challenging for the logging industry over the passed few years. Because the residential construction market is the chief consumer of these wood-based products, logging companies have experienced considerable revenue decline since the 2008 economic downturn.

However, things are looking brighter for the logging industry. A new report by Scotiabank points out an increased demand for wood products in the U.S., declaring that wood products manufacturers will soon experience a rebound due to an improving housing market and west coast lumber being exported to Asian markets. Industrial demand for wood, such as for crates and pallets, typically correlates with manufacturing production and has been trending upward at a moderate pace and should continue to improve through 2013.

The use of wood in any kind of construction, whether it’s residential or not, helps all of the major producers of wood-based products. Whether it’s as simple as lumber used in construction, or it’s as intricate as wood used in cabinetry, doors and windows and all those other types of value-added finished products, all indicators point to an improved market, including increased mechanization of logging operations and improvements in logging equipment.

Liberty Financial Group, Inc. provides direct equipment financing and leasing for all types of new and used essential commercial logging equipment, including:

  • Excavator
  • Sawmill
  • Delimber
  • Wheel Loader
