Thousands expected at the Manchester Cleaning Show 2016

The new regional cleaning show, to be held at Manchester’s Event City, 6-7 April, is a spin-off from the London Cleaning Show, which is held biannually at the ExCeL Arena.

It’s been organised by the British Cleaning Council and Quartz Business Media, to showcase the wealth of talent that exists in the regions.

BCC chairman Simon Hollingbery said: “We realise that traveling to London’s Docklands can be a long journey for people from the North and Scotland, so we wanted to hold a show that was on their door step. We’re delighted to have some major brands on-board, and the visitor numbers look really encouraging. Event City is a fantastic venue, and very easy to get to, so I’m looking forward to this show, and hope it can become a regular fixture to complement the main London show.”

Exhibitors will include major brands such as Karcher, anti-slip specialist Bonasystems, major northern contract cleaner Floorbrite, Vax, Nilfisk-Advance, Sebo, Prochem, Greyland and Unger.

There is also a free seminar programme that will run throughout the show, featuring key speakers from the industry, and the announcement, and award ceremony, of the ‘Cleaning Operative of the Year’ competition.
