WaveMAX Laundry is one of the fastest-growing laundromat franchises in the country, offering a semi-absentee business model with high cash flow and strong unit economics. Established in 2012 and franchising since 2016, WaveMAX is redefining the laundromat industry with efficient operations, cutting-edge technology, and a proven real estate selection process. With low labor requirements, high customer demand, and recession-resistant services, WaveMAX provides franchisees with a scalable and passive income opportunity in a highly fragmented industry.

Why Choose WaveMAX?

WaveMAX is revolutionizing the laundromat industry by introducing a national brand with a proven system, allowing franchisees to enter a market traditionally dominated by independent operators.

WaveMAX locations are designed for maximum profitability with a semi-absentee model requiring minimal owner involvement, low employee requirements, and energy-efficient technology that reduces operating costs. The proprietary real estate selection process ensures optimal site locations, leading to high traffic and increased revenue potential.

Franchisees benefit from multiple revenue streams, including self-service laundromats, wash-dry-fold services, commercial laundry accounts, and vending/ATM sales, with no royalties on ATM or vending revenue.

Comprehensive Training and Support

Franchisees receive extensive training, covering all aspects of laundromat operations, equipment management, and customer service strategies. The support system includes:

  • Initial training at WaveMAX HQ
  • Grand opening support at the franchisee’s location
  • Ongoing operational reviews, monthly calls, and marketing guidance

WaveMAX also provides a comprehensive marketing program to drive customer traffic and build brand awareness.

A Resilient and Essential Business

The laundromat industry is an $11 billion industry with consistent customer demand, regardless of economic conditions. Unlike many service-based businesses, laundromats provide an essential need, making them highly recession-resistant.

Ideal Franchisee Profile

WaveMAX is looking for business-savvy, growth-minded entrepreneurs who are interested in semi-absentee ownership. Ideal candidates should have strong management skills, customer service focus, and the ability to follow a proven system.
