China now has 1.4 billion inhabitants, and 270 million cars, representing a huge automotive aftermarket and huge opportunities in the car wash market.
In China, it is easy for business people to follow the trend. If you see a well-made product of A, you will soon have similar products B, C, D, and more. The same is true for the car washing machine market. According to incomplete statistics, as of December 2023, there are nearly 300 car washing machine manufacturers in China, and many new brands have been established overnight, focusing on low-price sales to quickly capture market share. Unhealthy competition has led to many new brands shutting down quickly, and then re-registered a new brand to re-sell to the public very fast, In the end, customers who do not know the car wash industry and pay the bill.
How to choose the right equipment from many car washing machine manufacturers is very simple. We recommend starting from the following perspectives:
1. Inspect the factory’s car washing machine history (with old photo records of the historical development process to prove it). Domestic inspections can be carried out on-site; export customers can visit and compare several car washing machine factories in China if conditions permit, or communicate online through video conferencing. The car washing production and R&D history is at least 10 years. This point is very important.
2. Whether it specializes in the category of car washing machines. This reflects whether the car washing machine factory concentrates on developing and producing car washing machines.
3. Whether there is an independent technical team. This is related to the software ability of the car washing machine and the speed of after-sales response.
4. Export experience, which countries have been exported to currently, and whether you can directly contact customers to obtain real feedback from customers or screenshots of customer feedback to get the best first-hand evaluation of the equipment experience.
5. The professionalism of the salesperson and the speed of reply. Professional sales will always consider issues from the customer’s perspective and will respond to customer questions at any time whenever necessary. This is crucial for cross-border machinery sales.
6. Compare at least 3 car washing machine factories and select the one you think is suitable based on the five points mentioned above.
