Here is a simple way to match your Kannur location to a Wash Kiya model before you speak to the team.

Your location	Suggested Wash Kiya model
District headquarters: Kannur	Staff-operated laundry franchise (FOCM)
Other towns: Kannur Municipal Corporation, Thalassery Municipality and Payyannur Municipality	Staff-operated franchise; self-service where there is a campus or society

For high-street locations

For a shop-front laundry serving households, start with Kannur, then towns such as Kannur Municipal Corporation, Thalassery Municipality and Payyannur Municipality. This is the FOCM model, Franchise Owned, Company Managed, which the brand describes as India's only FOCM laundry franchise.

For closed communities in Kannur

Where the users already live or study in one place, such as a society, hostel or college campus in or near Kannur, a no-staff self-service laundry from ₹20 lakh is the model to ask about.

Upgrading an existing laundry

The third option is equipment only: for Kannur operators who run their own laundry setup and want commercial machines. Ask for a quote when you enquire.
