Commercial cleaning contractor Cleanology is extending its operations from London into the rest of the country.
After 20 years servicing the capital, and nearly 10 years in Manchester, Cleanology said the company is now “forging ahead with new hubs across the Midlands, Scotland and the South-West”. It is working in 14 cities across the UK with clients including a well-known electric vehicle manufacturer and several national chains.
To mark the national launch, Cleanology has commissioned an HGV to be specially branded in its iconic green-and-blue flag logo. The expansion ties in with Cleanology’s 20th anniversary celebrations – delayed in 2020 owing to Covid-19.
CEO Dominic Ponniah said: “We are excited that this branded HGV will be travelling to every part of the country at the same time as we expand our business across the UK. While our base has always been London, we’ve been delivering contracts in Manchester for almost 10 years and now have offices in Manchester and Leeds. The launch of our national service is a natural expansion which will make our future growth plans possible. This year, we have already grown by 50%. We aim to double our turnover in the next three years to £30 million; going national is part of that journey.”
Over the past year, Cleanology has expanded from its London and Manchester hubs, to 12 additional towns and cities, including Banbury, Bedford, Bicester, Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Exeter, Glasgow, Leeds, Liverpool, Reading and Southampton. Another 12 locations will be launched over the next year.
Ponniah described the move as “a fresh offering for commercial contract cleaning in the regions”. He added: “Cleanology is large enough to cope, but small enough to care. We are known for our award-winning sustainable projects – some of which have helped us to save 28,000 plastic bottles every year – and, in 2021, we won a Living Wage Champion Award from the Living Wage Foundation. We are looking forward to bringing innovation and green cleaning to a wider audience.”
