Authorized Partner Programme
Stop buying detergent. Start building a brand.
For car washes and cleaning companies: bulk chemicals at partner prices, retail bottles to resell, co-branded signage and uniforms, a free business app, and cleaning leads routed to you.
What partners get
Four things a supplier has never given you
We are selecting the first 30 car washes and 15 cleaning companies in Gauteng for the pilot, then opening other provinces and neighbouring countries.
Dual-engine supply
Service with 20 L and 200 L Tyre Shine, Car Shampoo, Multi-Clean and Dishwashing Liquid; stock barcoded retail bottles to cross-sell at a 40-50% margin.
Radical trade support
Co-branded fascia signage, uniforms, caps, aprons and caddies, funded by Molecules for approved partners under the partner agreement.
Molecules OS, free
Bookings, customer log, stock and WhatsApp or PDF invoices with the Powered by Molecules Chem seal. Reorders before you run dry.
Leads in your zone
Molecules markets residential and corporate cleaning and routes every lead in your zone to its top-ranked partner.

Co-branding & trade support
Look like the best business on your street
Your business name stays the hero. Molecules sits underneath as “Powered by Molecules Chem”, the way the big drinks and telecoms brands back their outlets.
Images are illustrations of the programme. Signage and uniforms are supplied to approved partners as set out in the partner agreement; partner names shown are examples.
