Clean Direct Inc. , a leading distributor of specialty cleaning equipment and supplies, proudly announces its 10-year anniversary alongside the official launch of its new Clean Direct Store Chain, a first-of-its-kind retail concept designed exclusively for professional cleaners.

Founded in 2016 as SkyVac ® North America and while adding several additional brands along the way, Clean Direct, incorporated under its umbrella brand, has grown from a single distribution hub into a trusted partner for contractors and service providers both nationwide and internationally. Over the past decade, the company has introduced professional-grade solutions—from gutter and window cleaning systems to soft wash, gum removal, and high-dusting equipment—that have raised the standard for cleaning operations across North America.

The launch of the Clean Direct Store Chain marks a major milestone in the company’s mission to make a broader range of high-performance products and training more accessible. The new stores will combine retail convenience with direct access to expert knowledge through its custom Cleaning Supply Chef AI, on-site inventory, and hands-on support and training. Each location will be tailored for professional cleaners seeking everything from advanced equipment to everyday consumables.

“Reaching 10 years is a proud moment for us, but what excites me most is what’s next,” said Garrett McAlister, CEO of Clean Direct. “These new stores give professional cleaners a central hub in each major market where they can not only purchase products but also get advice, training, and support from a team that understands their business. It’s about equipping cleaners with the tools they need—and the knowledge to use them successfully.”

The first Clean Direct Store opened Sept 26 2025 in Sanford, North Carolina, attached to the company’s national headquarters and distribution center. Additional store rollouts are planned in key U.S. markets over the coming years, with long-term growth strategies including both corporate-owned and franchise opportunities.

Clean Direct’s expansion is powered by its unique distribution model, which blends centralized inventory management with localized customer service. The stores will also integrate Clean Supply AI, an innovative digital assistant developed by Clean Direct to help customers learn cleaning techniques and choose the right solutions for their needs.

“This new chapter continues our commitment to raising the bar for the industry,” Garrett McAlister added. “We’ve spent 10 years listening to cleaners, solving their challenges, and building trust. Now we’re giving them a home base in their local communities.”
