The Beginning
JANCOA Janitorial Services, Inc. was founded in 1970 when Tony Miller Sr., a 19-year-old student at the University of Cincinnati, took on a second job cleaning local taverns after one of his professors commented on the growing “services” sector, including janitorial services. When his father passed away in 1972, Tony transformed the company into a full-time operation in order to financially support his family.
A Family Affair
Initially working out of the basement in their home, Tony handled operational issues, his mother handled office functions, and his brother took on the task of obtaining new business. Tony’s pioneering efforts not only sustained the Miller family but laid a strong foundation upon which today’s award-winning company stands.
Along came Mary
Twenty years later, Tony’s wife Mary joined the team to form a dynamic partnership of operations, sales, and leadership that has seen JANCOA grow to a company with more than 300 employees and annual sales exceeding $10 million.
Continuing the Success
For the past three years, JANCOA has experienced annual 5-10% increases in revenues, while operating in a commercial real estate market that has been battling steady decreases in occupancy. By creating processes that provide value and efficiencies for their customers, business partners, and team members, JANCOA continues to be the industry leader in the Greater Cincinnati commercial cleaning market.
