A word from BG Cleaning Systems' CEO & Founder

BG Cleaning Systems was founded in 1995 in Reykjavík, Iceland by Benedikt Hjálmarsson, and has now grown into a multifaceted cleaning services company that caters to all types of facilities with a wide range of cleaning needs.
 
Benedikt tells his story…….“It all started with one vacuum cleaner and a small carpet cleaning machine in 1995.
 
My dear mother lent me her Visa card so that I could purchase these machines. My grandmother generously allowed me use of her mobile phone. I had a small car which I used to get to my jobs. With the help of my family, I was able to take the first step to start my own business venture.
 
I was just 18 then when I started on my journey and went into the cleaning industry. Since then, a lot of developments and changes have helped BG evolve into one of the strongest and largest cleaning service providers in Iceland.
 
I gained a lot of experience through all these years and learned a lot from them. We developed a wide range of services according to the demands of the market in keeping with the current trends in commercial cleaning.
 
I realize how difficult it is to start from scratch. I experienced that myself. That is the reason why I want to help other budding entrepreneurs to be able to stand on their own two feet and build their own companies like I did.
 
We have developed a business system based on different schools of thought known in the cleaning industry. I believe that no system in the commercial cleaning industry is as resilient.
 
We offer you as numerous options as possible among our business system solutions
