There are 14 million passenger cars and light\ncommercial vehicles in South Africa\u2019s 10 major cities, a serious shortage of\nprofessional car-cleaning garages and an abundance of unemployed or\nunemployable people who could be trained in \u201cdetailing\u201d (the proper term to describe\ntop-notch car cleaners).<\/p>\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s\na market just begging to be disrupted and that\u2019s what MobeeWash has in mind. <\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cInstead\nof queueing to have your car washed, you book a time via the MobeeWash app and\neither arrive and find us waiting for you, or we come to you. I\u2019m still tickled\npink when my doorbell rings and its MobeeWash,\u201d says Sean O\u2019Connell, founder of\nMobeeWash and group CEO of its parent company, Bumblebee Consulting.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Other\nvehicle owners like to drop off their cars while they go to the gym or a quick\nmeeting, knowing that their pride and joy will be gleaming and spotless within\nan hour. (Note that only waterless, eco-friendly products and steam are used,\nso there\u2019s no water wasted or messy runoff.)<\/p>\n\n\n<p>It\nhas taken MobeeWash less than two years to attract 5&nbsp;000 users in Cape\nTown, and now to enter the Gauteng market, Roodepoort having recently become\nthe first city in the province to have a MobeeWash operator.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>The\npart that probably makes Sean and his business partners proudest is that so\nfar, MobeeWash has created jobs for 60 people who were unemployed and in some\ncases unemployable, whether through lack of skills, illiteracy or age. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right\" style=\"grid-template-columns:auto 57%\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/www.tt100.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/MobeeWash-video_2_1-1.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p> \u201cMobeeWash was born out of a dream to get South Africa working by embracing the concepts of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) and disruptive business philosophies,\u201d he says, explaining that it uses NGOs and youth programmes to find the most suitable candidates \u2013 all unemployed or unemployable.&nbsp; <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>\n\u201cWe provide full training and mentoring and an initial three-month contract. If a person performs, they become permanent.\u201d Background checks are done on all candidates before joining the MobeeWash family.\n<\/p>\n\n\n<p>As\nfor the MobeeWash app, which is downloadable from the Google and Apple stores,\nSean says: \u201cI can\u2019t claim to be completely unique because Uber and AirBnB\nthought of it first. But we believe there are massive opportunities in car wash\nmarkets locally and internationally. It would take 58&nbsp;000 teams 30 days to\nwash every car in South Africa. Were we to seek to address just 3%\nof this market initially, we would create employment for 10 500 people.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Winner of the Innovation Concept award for 2018, category for emerging enterprises Maybee what SA needs are more ideas like MobeeWash Talk about an incredible business and job creation opportunity, and little or no competition to worry about.
