The company that developed The Dry Cleaner App is looking to raise funds for further expansion.
Originally launched in Media City, Manchester, The Dry Cleaner App enables customers to connect directly with their local drycleaner across the United Kingdom and Ireland to schedule collection and delivery of garments.
The Dry Cleaner App is already available to download on Apple iOS and Android phones.
The company is currently looking to crowdfund a maximum of £200,000 under the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) with a minimum investment of £25. The pitch can be found at the Crowd for Angels website. Crowd for Angels is the first directly regulated crowdfunding platform for debt and equity funding.
The Dry Cleaner App developer and founder Jonathan O’Brien, a member of the Guild of Cleaners & Launderers and the Textile Services Association, said he has met with several store owners in London and surrounding areas in recent months as the company continues to expand.
"Feedback has been extremely positive from members who have been testing the store login," he said. "This provides them with online control over prices and services and we have made additional changes based on their suggestions."
The Dry Cleaner App now plans to introduce web booking so orders can be placed not only through the app but also through the website.
