Last year, Mrs. Marija Mikić from the town of Županja made a bold decision to leave her secure job and become her own boss, completely turning her life around.

This decision led to the establishment of Vešeraj Marija, a laundry that has now become a well-known establishment in the city, effectively meeting the growing demand of its clients.

Challenge: Desire for change

"I worked at the same workplace for 26 and a half years, producing sports planes. At 47, I felt it was time for a change," says Mrs. Marija.

"I live in a building in the town center, and there has been an empty office space on the ground floor for several months. I thought it would be nice to avoid spending time traveling to work and saw it as an ideal opportunity to start my own business. However, I wasn't sure what it would be exactly."

By researching the internet, she concluded that a commercial laundry is exactly what the town of Županja needs. She got in touch with our Bright World and started planning her entrepreneurial journey.

"Everything fell into place. Despite my lack of experience, I quickly mastered the steps to open a laundry with the support of experts from Bright World," she remembers.

Solution: Starting a laundry business

Mrs. Marija left her former job and boldly embarked on realizing her entrepreneurial aspirations. The potential location was available, but the issue of funding the venture still needed to be addressed.

"I applied for self-employment support, which supplemented my savings and secured funds," she explains.

According to our team's advice, she chose a combination of devices and accessories that will ideally meet the business needs of her commercial laundry. This includes:

"It's easy for anyone to master working with LG professional washers and dryers, and the results of washing and drying are excellent," Mrs. Marija explains.

Results: Success follows quality

Entrepreneurial bravery has paid off, and the laundry is now successfully operating, with satisfied returning clients. In this area where laundry services were not commonly used before, this trend is rapidly changing.

"I strive to provide top-notch service, earning their trust," Mrs. Marija emphasizes.

Apart from the locals, who mainly wash larger items such as blankets, bedspreads, and pillows, Vešeraj Marija's services are also increasingly used by restaurants and apartment complexes.

"The business is growing, and the funds invested in the devices were returned in just one year. That's why I recently acquired more LG professional devices so I can provide an even better service to an even greater number of clients," says Mrs. Marija with pride.
