NATIONAL CLEANING
« on: March 30, 2006, 09:47:54 pm »
Having spoken to the h/s rep for a national high st company I was informed that they are changing the way they operate w/c contracts,they are minimizing their list to maybe 4 /5 cleaners in the uk or one only
He informed me they have about 425 stores nationwide and are expanding to double in a few years time.

So a few of you will maybe see me in your area shortly ;D

THERE IS A MEETING IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS TO MAKE THE DECISION WHICH WAY THEY ARE GOING, BUT THEY WONT BE USING SUB CONTRACTORS.

 I told him to put my name  down for the midlands,he then took my buiss card and told me he would be in touch after the decision had been made.

IF THE DECISION IS TO HAVE 4/5 UK CONTRACTORS ANYONE OF YOU INTERESTED

BIG COMPANYS NATIONAL COMPANIES NEED NOT APPLY CUS YOU WILL BE TOLD TO SLING YOU SQUEEZZEE,THIS IS A JOB FOR LOCAL YOAKLES ;D ;D

I WILL REPLY TO EMAILS ANOTHER TIME,im not making any promises at the moment till he comes back to me[A CUSTOMERS NEIGHBOUR SO I KNOW WHERE HE LIVES] THIS IS ONLY A T 1ST STAGE [the guy has to put in his 2 penneth worth] but because hes the h/s rep for the whole of ENGLAND of this company we talked about natiional companies [cleaning] and he replied they dont want subcontractors doing work for them,iie national companies
because in his experiience they flaunt hs issues by using semi skilled labour as  skilled.
I suggested he split it up into 5 sections of England,because of water prod for water fed poles,to whiich he replied it wouldnt be all wfp,
AFTER ABOUT 1/2 HR CONSERVATION HE STARTED TO SEE THAT I WAS MORE THAN ABLE
EVEN HAD TO PUT MY SAFETY BOLLARDS OUT ON THE CUSTOMERS DRIVEWAY [CREEP]  TO HANDLE THE MIDLANDS AND TOLD ME THE AREA WOULD BE NORTH OF SHEFFIELD TO NORTHAMPTON AND FROM THE EAST COAST TO BRUM WOW![WILL MY VAN STAND IT?


HE TOOK MMY DETAILS AND BUISS CARD,AND SAID HE WOULD BE IN CONTACT WHEN THE DECISION WAS MADE AT DIIRECTOR LEVEL,
SO WHEN HE DOES COME BACK ,I WILL BE ABLE TO SHOW HIM HES NOT THE ONLYONE
WHOS BEEN DOING HIS HOMEWORK
AND PUT HIM IN CONTACT OR TO HAVE CONTACT WITH OTHER WFP/WC IIN OTHER AREAS WHICH HE MAY BE ABLE TO USE.

If they do go for just one then they'll have to use one of the big nationals. I can only think of a few true nationals with their own window cleaners, OCS, Mitie and Antac.
