Sejinsa Co., Ltd. (CEO Yongbin Yoon), which operates the O2O mobile car wash platform ‘People who are good at washing cars,’ announced on the 1st that it was selected as the 18th batch of ‘Start-up NEST,’ a startup support program of the Korea Credit Guarantee Fund.
"Startup Nest" is the Korea Credit Guarantee Fund's flagship startup support program. It identifies promising startups and provides tailored support for growth, including guarantees and investment, professional acceleration, and access to policy financing. A key feature of the program is its collaboration with private accelerators, which supports practical scale-up programs such as strengthening investor relations (IR) capabilities, legal and tax advice, and advancing business strategies.
In this 18th recruitment, which was conducted through fierce competition nationwide, Sejin was the only company selected in the mobile car wash O2O field, receiving recognition for its technological prowess and innovative business model.
Officially launched in August 2023, Sejinsa is rapidly growing, providing over 20,000 mobile car washes in just over a year and a half. With 100% contactless, night-time car washes, Sejinsa offers vehicle maintenance without time constraints. Furthermore, the company is the first in the industry to introduce a "group car wash" feature, operating a hyperlocal service model that offers discounts based on shared demand at the regional level.
Additionally, we are minimizing water use during car washing by introducing an eco-friendly rinse-less process, and are also contributing to job creation for middle-aged and older people through an agreement with the Seoul Metropolitan Government's 50 Plus Center.
Sejinsa CEO Yongbin Yoon said, “This selection of startup Nest is the result of positive evaluations in terms of both technological competitiveness and social value,” and added, “We will go beyond car washing and integrate all areas of automobile management, including light maintenance, to become a lifestyle super app for car owners.”
