Ayanda Dladla is the co-founder of Mowash – a mobile car wash platform turning everyday inconvenience into innovation. What started as long Saturday waits at local car washes became the spark for a tech-enabled service that connects customers to car washers on demand.

In this episode, Ayanda shares how his background in engineering shaped the foundation of Mowash, why he believes township businesses are Africa’s real startup frontier, and how he built a platform with zero funding, using Twitter and hustle.

We explore lessons in bootstrapping, customer engagement, and what it takes to turn a side hustle into a formal business that creates jobs and dignity.

This is a masterclass in purpose-led building — and why the future of African innovation lives in everyday problems.
