Join our leading laundry and dry cleaning franchise
Pressed in Time is an established laundry and dry-cleaning brand that has been operating in South Africa for over 20 years. With over 80 stores, and still growing, we are South Africa’s largest laundry and dry cleaning franchise.
Our solid expansion is a result of us identifying a real consumer need and satisfying it in a friendly, efficient and professional way for households and commercial clients alike.
We also invest in cutting edge technology and are always looking for new services, locations and ways that we can make our customers’ lives easier.
Our success and existing connections to the UK via our CEO Kenny MacKinnon, promoted us to spread our wings in 2022 and expand to the UK. In February 2023, we opened our flagship store in Chorlton, Manchester.
We are now looking for franchisees across the UK; we are looking for those looking at both single and multi-unit stores.
