Tidy Green Clean, the leading environmentally friendly commercial cleaning business that operates on a franchise model with headquarters in Aberdeen, has been included in the Elite Franchise Top 100 UK Finalists for a fourth year running. This year, the business has risen 15 places, securing 80th spot and is tipped as ‘one to watch’.
The HSBC Elite Franchise TOP 100 UK Awards is Britain’s definitive official list celebrating excellence in the franchise community, judged on eight core criteria. This helps gauge entrants on their size, growth, ambitions, and contributions made to franchisees and the community, judged by an independent panel of top judges in the franchise sector, who score the full top 100 list. The EF 100 recognises the sector’s brightest franchises, across a wide range of industries.
This latest accolade for Tidy Green Clean comes on the back of another exceptional year for the business, now with seven franchises across Scotland, employing more than 400 people. It also achieved a fresh set of accreditations this summer, including Safe Contractor, to support its growth ambitions and commitment to putting people – both customers and employees – at the centre of its business. It also became a Disability Confident Employer, to make sure that there are genuinely equal opportunities for anyone looking to work for Tidy Green Clean and that they can benefit from the opportunities employers gain by employing disabled people. The company has also achieved Carbon Negative status for a second year, alongside its Living Wage Accreditation, Silver Achilles UVDB status, as well as successfully passing its ISO accreditations three-year review.
Co-Founder & Managing Director Andrew Alleway stated,
“Tidy Green Clean is an attractive, hard-working, high-standards business that consistently puts our people and our customers first. To achieve a place in the HSBC Elite Franchise Top 100 for the fourth consecutive year is testament to the performance of all our Regional Director franchisees and their teams. We know our customers and our people will appreciate this recognition, and we’d like to thank everyone who’s been a key part of our success. We never rest on our laurels and will be going into 2023 with the full intention to continue to satisfy customers, treat our people well, and do our bit for the environment, because complacency has no place at Tidy Green Clean.”
