Our Story

Founded in 2016 in Midrand, South Africa, Mowash began with a simple idea: cleaning services should be convenient, reliable, and premium quality.

Our founder, Ayanda Dladla, was frustrated by the inconsistent quality and scheduling hassles of traditional cleaning services. She envisioned a modern solution that leveraged technology to deliver exceptional service on demand.

What started as a small mobile car washing operation in Midrand has grown into a comprehensive cleaning service platform serving multiple cities across South Africa, including Gauteng, Cape Town, and Durban.

Today, Mowash connects over 7,500 registered users with vetted professional cleaners for everything from mobile car detailing to complete home cleaning services—all bookable with just a few taps on our app.
