4. Start-up business of the year
5. Sustainability – best practice
6. Commitment to diversity in the workforce

Michelle Marshall, Editor of ECJ said: “2019 was a fantastic year for the European Cleaning & Hygiene awards, with a record number of entries from across Europe. It was brilliant to see so many new faces coming through and hear all about their outstanding contributions to our industry.
“As we bring in a new decade and mark our fifth annual event, we’re incredibly excited to learn what success looks like in 2020. From sustainability and diversity commitments to empowering the younger generation to build a career in a sector that is so often overlooked, we want to hear all about your efforts to support the industry. Best of luck to all entrants.”
