CITY OF SAN FERNANDO — Central Luzon motorists now have a new, convenient way to keep their rides spotless and shining as Wash 101, the city’s trusted name in premium car care, officially opened its first mall-based carwash at the steel parking of SM City Pampanga, the longest mall in the country.
For founder and owner Pau Sombillo, the milestone is more than just business expansion. It is a fulfillment of faith and perseverance. From its humble beginnings in 2016 with the first branch in Barangay San Agustin, Wash 101 has grown into a five-branch strong enterprise known for its top-tier service and customer care.
“This is all part of God’s plan, not mine,” Sombillo shared, reflecting the spiritual foundation that has guided every step of his journey. “Each branch reminds me that success comes from dedication, faith, and staying true to quality.”
In 2023, Sombillo redefined the traditional carwash experience by introducing a café tandem concept, offering customers not just clean cars but comforting cups of coffee while they wait. The idea took off with the San Isidro branch, an instant hit among Kapampangans, and was followed by expansions in Lazatin blvd., Calulut, and now the SM City Pampanga branch.
To complement the new location, Cafe 101, located at the mall’s third floor, continues to serve favorites like the 101 Signature, Biscoff Frappe, and Matcha beverages, giving mallgoers and motorists alike a taste of Wash 101’s signature hospitality.
As an added convenience, Wash 101 at SM City Pampanga will refund customers’ parking fees when they avail of any carwash service, making every visit not just satisfying but also practical and rewarding.
As Wash 101 celebrates nine years of service, its promise remains clear: to deliver the same level of excellence, consistency, and heart that made it a household name in Pampanga. From the carwash bays to the café counters, every effort reflects the company’s core belief that success shines brightest when it is guided by purpose and faith.
With its first mall carwash in Central Luzon, Wash 101 once again proves that clean cars and good coffee make a perfect tandem, especially when driven by passion, quality, and God’s plan.
