Case Study

Retail & Public-Facing Premises – East Coast Scotland

Red Hackle was appointed to provide ongoing cleaning support for a customer-facing retail environment operating extended trading hours.

Following a detailed site review, we implemented a structured scope aligned with footfall patterns and off-peak cleaning windows, supported by supervision and regular quality checks.

The result: consistently high presentation standards, minimal disruption to customers, and a reliable service the client does not need to chase.

Retail cleaning FAQs

Can cleaning be carried out outside trading hours?

Yes. Most retail cleaning is completed early mornings, evenings, overnight, or during off-peak periods to avoid disruption to customers.

Can cleaning schedules be adjusted during busy periods?

Yes. Cleaning frequency and task focus can be reviewed to support seasonal demand, promotions, or increased footfall.

Do you support multi-unit or portfolio retail clients?

Yes. We support both single-site and multi-site retail operations, delivering consistent standards across locations.

Do you provide consumables?

We can either work with client-supplied consumables or manage supply and stock control as part of the service.

Looking for a retail cleaning partner that protects your brand and customer experience?

Tell us:

  • • Type of retail environment
  • • Opening hours and preferred cleaning times
  • • Cleaning frequency required
  • • Any access or compliance considerations

We'll provide a clear, structured proposal — not a vague hourly quote.
