      Cogogo presents an unmissable opportunity to acquire a well-established laundrette in the heart of Swansea, operated by the same owner for over 32 years.

      With a strong local presence, a loyal customer base, and excellent online reviews, this business is perfect for a hands-on owner or an investor looking to step into a ready-to-run operation.

      Located in the bustling area of Hafod, Swansea, the laundrette enjoys strong footfall and visibility. The surrounding residential catchment ensures consistent trade, while the proximity to transport links and amenities makes it convenient for customers near and far.

      This friendly, community-rooted laundrette has been operated solely by the owner for over two decades and is now being offered for sale due to retirement. With no current staff, it presents a streamlined handover, plus an excellent opportunity for a new owner to expand.

      Selling Points:


      • Over 32 years of trading history
      • Freehold property with a rental flat
      • Great Goole reviews and loyal customer base
      • Scope to grow with extended hours, advertising, and commercial contracts

      The washing machines and dryers are all professionally serviced by the vendor. The setup includes three eco-friendly 18kg washing machines (approximately 2.5 years old) and four commercial coin-operated dryers. There are no self-service machines on-site.

      Whether you're an entrepreneur looking to own your first business or an established operator seeking to expand your portfolio, Hafod Laundrette is a clean, straightforward investment with fantastic potential.

      The laundrette currently trades six days a week, closing at 12 noon on Saturdays. There is significant scope to:



      • Extend trading hours to capture more local demand


      • Introduce ironing services


      • Offer delivery and collection services


      • Add dry cleaning to the business model


      • Promote commercial laundry contracts


      • Implement advertising and local marketing (not yet explored)
