Its a good business and you don't need all the money in the world to start.
You can start small and grow big later.

Laundry and drycleaaning biz is a money spinner depending on the location and your marketing strategies.
I have worked with a leading cleaning company(o'la kleen) and could be useful.
Give it a shot!

This is the main factor that determines how you will sstart. Secondly do you have the basic knowledge of fabrics or any experience on laundry /drycleaning? or you are depending on others?
