Lundrigo, Water Laundry Service Increases 2.5 Times Due to Cold Wave... 6 Tons Ordered Over the Weekend

Processing Orders of 6 Tons Over Two Days

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] Uisikju Company (CEO Jo Seong-woo) announced on the 11th that the number of water laundry orders for its non-face-to-face mobile laundry service 'Laundrigo' surged by about 150% compared to December due to consecutive cold waves, processing approximately 6 tons of orders over the past weekend alone.

Laundrigo's water laundry service has been rapidly gaining popularity through portal site cafes, communities, and SNS, with an average monthly order increase of 40%, currently serving over 10,000 households per month. Recently, as the number of households unable to use washing machines due to frozen pipes has increased, customers using the water laundry service reached 2.5 times the weekly average last week.

In particular, Laundrigo explained that it processed nearly 6 tons of laundry, including 2.5 tons and 3.5 tons of water laundry on Saturday and Sunday respectively, along with dry cleaning and dress shirts, completing same-day delivery.

Laundrigo has focused its investment on water laundry, moving beyond the existing dry cleaning and dress shirt-centered laundry service categories. It features a hotel-style premium laundry service including ▲use of proprietary detergent with excellent antiviral effects ▲tumbling drying effective in removing dust and mites ▲additional sterilization washing with high-temperature steam.

Jo Seong-woo, CEO of Uisikju Company, stated, "Until now, the laundry industry has remained centered on the dry cleaning market, but with the increase of single-person and two-person households, demand for water laundry is rapidly growing," adding, "The growth of laundry services will bring significant changes to the future laundry market landscape."
