Board meetings are moving to the car wash, so executives can discuss their strategic plans while their cars get a valet spruce up.
Espresso Carwash Cafe, which was started three years ago by Christchurch’s Damian and Debbie Curtain, is getting an increasing number of businesses holding their monthly board meetings in its specialised meeting room.
“They have their board meeting and come out to nice clean cars. Some come in for breakfast as well,” Damian Curtain said.
He hoped the concept would catch on across the rest of New Zealand as the firm planned to have 30 franchises working in three years.
There are four franchised branches in Christchurch, including three in malls, which all provide a 100 per cent handwash vehicle valet.
“A customer can drive into the mall and park anywhere they like, they drop the keys at the reception, and go do their grocery shopping and we’ll text them when the car is ready.”
In the North Island, it plans to open in Rotorua in November, with three planned for Wellington.
