Award-winning, cleaning firm Mrs Buckét, is celebrating after selling the domestic side of the business with a forecast growth of 30% on the commercial side in 2019.
The company, which spans South Wales and the South West, was launched 13 years ago by entrepreneur Rachael Flanagan and grew into a £multi-million domestic and commercial cleaning firm.
With an annual turnover of £3 million and 250 commercial companies on the books, the company is starting 2019 with a fresh approach after taking “the natural step” to focus solely on the commercial side of the business.
“I started this company 13 years ago with big plans for the future and through passion, dedication and hard work I have seen them come to fruition,” said Rachael.
“I was just 18 when I started the firm in 2005, and in that time, it has grown from a domestic cleaning operation to a full-service cleaning company, with offices in Swansea, Cardiff, Newport and Bristol. We now employ over 300 staff and 90% of the work we do is for commercial clients, so it was the natural step for us to focus on this side of operations.
“This is really positive news for the company and we are thrilled that the domestic side has been sold to an established, professional cleaning company. “The 200 weekly and fortnightly domestic clients and the staff who operate them have all transferred over and there are no job losses. All the staff and clients have been informed and everyone is happy.
“This year we expect to see around 30% growth in the commercial sector and the time felt right to make this leap. Nothing will change for the commercial side of the business, but we now have five area managers who will be helping to move the business forward this year, managing staff and client relationships and creating new business. Everything is looking really exciting for the coming year.”
