Tipperary cleaning company cleans up after 3.5 million patrons at festivals

Ryans Cleaning are midway through their busiest events season on record since the company was established 40 years ago.

This Summer, Ryans will operate on 140 live show days in the Ireland and the UK.

This roster will see Ryans Cleaning provide services to 3.5 million patrons.

The latest addition to their client portfolio, BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend, was their opening festival in the UK this season.

The three-day event took place at Stockwood Park, Luton on the last weekend of May.

A team of 70 wearing the Ryans Cleaning uniform provided the full scope of cleaning and waste management services for more than 100,000 attendees.

Midway through their summer fixtures now, there's a sense of confidence in how Ryans has successfully resourced their operations to manage the scale of their contracts this year.

To support these contracts and further growth, Ryans Cleaning has doubled their management and site support team.

With the aim to provide more efficient and proactive relationships with their existing and potential new partners, which will also support the long-term strategic goals of the company.

Notable new contracts this season include Boomtown Festival and Lost Village.

All the while the company continues to look after its valued clients closer to home, Bord Gáis Energy Theatre, Dublin Zoo, 3 Arena, Electric Picnic, and The Ploughing Championships.

From a sporting perspective, Croke Park, Punchestown, Limerick, Leopardstown, Galway, Tipperary, and Kilbeggan racecourses being amongst their longest established clients.

Aisling Ryan, CEO of Ryans Cleaning, commented, “We see our work as a vital element of the atmosphere and experience for people coming to enjoy a festival. Success in cleaning and environmental services is becoming increasingly reliant on data and how we utilise it to innovate.
