Kia Ora Procurement Teams!

Our Service Capability

We're an excellent fit for your organisation if:

  • You require cleaning services across Auckland, Wellington, Hawkes Bay, or Otago regions

  • Your head office is under 12,000 square metres

  • Your annual cleaning spend is between $100k and $500k

What We Do

We provide comprehensive daily and periodic cleaning services to like-minded organisations, helping government agencies create public value through broader social and environmental outcomes within their cleaning contracts.

Why Choose Us

Superior Value for Money: As a social enterprise rather than a for-profit company, we deliver exceptional return on investment by reinvesting profits locally rather than sending them to overseas shareholders.

Social Impact Leadership: As Aotearoa's first pay-audited cleaning company, we've been a certified Living Wage employer since 2015. Our mission is creating a world without poverty where everyone is valued and respected for their work.

Proven Track Record: We're grateful to work with established clients including New Zealand Post, Taumata Arowai, LINZ/Toitū Te Whenua, and Xero, who have supported our growth journey.

Our Point of Difference

As a social enterprise, we understand the intersection of essential work and marginalised communities because we are both essential workers and community members ourselves. This lived experience informs everything we do.

Profit Reinvestment:

  • Staff wellbeing support with dedicated funding (actual pūtea)

  • Ongoing professional development and upskilling

  • Continuous service improvement and development

Our Vision: A world without poverty where everyone is valued and respected for their work.

Recognition and Support

We're proud to have received support from the Ministry for Social Development, Hutt City Council, Ākina Foundation, SAP Social Sabbatical, and Living Wage Aotearoa.

We're active members of the Cleaning Services Sector Collective.

Next Steps

We believe in open, honest conversation and are easy to work with. Please don't hesitate to reach out for an informal discussion about your cleaning service needs.
