Shopfront cleaning in Kenya

Shopfront cleaning focused on accessible glazing, signage surfaces and entrance presentation.

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional sample order: One street-level shop entrance: two glass doors, four fixed panes, one acrylic sign and the threshold. Both accessible glass faces are identified. Exclude ladders, graffiti chemicals, sign repair and pavement pressure washing. The retailer removes stock near the entrance and confirms the trading window.

Who is the first customer?

Retailers with street-facing entrances.
