In 2006, owner Jonathan Paxton and Edward Smith, were running a successful cleaning equipment business in Merseyside, selling to the end-user locally, and through distributors around the UK. The idea occurred to them to that it would be more sensible to offer the lower discounted prices, direct to the end-user through an online shopping store.
Having been in the Cleaning Industry since 1988, Jonathan used his contacts worldwide to source a new range of top quality cleaning equipment, dealing directly with some of the world's largest manufacturers under their own "Kiam" Brand. Firstly with petrol & diesel driven pressure washers, which had traditionally been the Company's most successful products, then small generators, and water pumps. With bulk purchasing power they were able to ensure the best possible Low Prices to the customer, at times, upsetting the old pressure washer market, who were still working on high margins.
