Clean Store

What Clean Store does

Clean Store (주식회사 클린스토어 C&C) is a South Korean manufacturer founded in 2017 that designs, produces, and distributes ultrasonic dishwashers for commercial foodservice and household use. The company is headquartered in Seoul, operates two manufacturing facilities in Goyang and Incheon, and maintains a nationwide distribution and service infrastructure of more than 12 branch offices and 30 mobile service vehicles (Clean Magic Cars) supporting installation, maintenance, and consumable replenishment.

The company's core technology is its proprietary Bubble Heating 365 system, an ultrasonic cleaning platform with integrated bubble-based heating that the company positions as the first of its kind in South Korea, with patent applications filed. The commercial product line comprises the Bubble Heating series in six configurations (C-600 through C-1500) targeted at small and mid-size foodservice operators, while the consumer-facing Lauren Kitchen Magic Sink series (Pro, Plus, Mini, Stand) addresses household kitchen applications. The Clean Master food waste processor and Dual Clean product extend the hardware portfolio into adjacent waste management and cleaning use cases.

Revenue is generated through three channels: direct hardware sales (commercial units approximately KRW 99,000–209,000; home units KRW 2.75M–4.1M), recurring accessory and detergent consumables, and rental subscription arrangements distributed through partnerships with Korean appliance rental platforms LG Magic, SK Magic, and Kyowon Wells. The company supplements direct sales with a certified partner program, public-sector engagements (e.g., Seoul Bamdot Night Market), and is pursuing a KOSDAQ listing targeted for 2023.

Broad incumbents

• MEIKO: German commercial dishwasher and food-waste handling equipment maker with strong global presence. Comparable product category spanning commercial dishwashers and food-waste equipment — directly aligned with Clean Store's two core lines (Bubble Heating dishwashers + Clean Master food waste processors).
• Hobart Corporation: US-headquartered market leader in commercial dishwashing and food-service equipment. Comparable as the dominant commercial dishwasher incumbent that Clean Store competes against in restaurants and institutional kitchens, though at much broader scale and with conventional (non-ultrasonic) technology.
• Winterhalter Gastronom: German manufacturer of professional commercial dishwashing systems widely used in hotels, restaurants and catering. Directly comparable product category (commercial dishwashers for food service), but a much larger established European incumbent versus Clean Store's ultrasonic niche.
• LG Electronics: Korea's largest home appliance manufacturer and a Clean Store rental partner (LG Electronics Rental Store). Comparable in the dishwasher and home-kitchen appliance category, with substantially greater scale, brand reach, and capacity to enter ultrasonic cleaning as a competitor.
• Jackson WWS: US commercial dishwasher manufacturer supplying restaurants and foodservice operations. Comparable customer base (restaurants, foodservice) and product category (commercial dishwashers), though a larger conventional-technology incumbent.

Direct peers

• iSonic Inc. US-based specialist in ultrasonic cleaning products for commercial and consumer use. Most direct technology peer to Clean Store given the shared ultrasonic cleaning platform, though focused on broader industrial/jewelry/medical applications rather than kitchen dishwashing.

Regional players

• Winia (formerly Daewoo Electronics): Korean home appliance manufacturer with kitchen appliance and dishwasher product lines. Comparable regional Korean appliance player serving overlapping household and small-commercial kitchen customers.
• Cuckoo Homesys: Korean home appliance maker specializing in water purifiers, bidets, and kitchen appliances. Comparable regional player in Korean household kitchen-appliance category where Clean Store competes for the same household consumer spend.
• SK Magic: Korean home appliance and rental company; Clean Store's rental distribution partner. Comparable as a Korean appliance/rental competitor and channel partner, with overlapping dishwasher and kitchen-cleaning product categories but a much broader appliance portfolio.

Emerging players

• Sonashi: Ultrasonic cleaning product maker serving household and small-commercial use cases. Direct technology peer in ultrasonic cleaning with overlapping product positioning in home kitchen and small-business cleaning.
