For decades, the commercial cleaning industry operated on a simple promise: "We were here last night." But in 2024, facility managers need more than just a promise—they need data. They need accountability. They need proof.

At Vaakawi, we are proud to continue our legacy of modernization by rolling out our new Digital Quality Assurance Platform across all our national accounts.

As August comes to a close, millions of students—from kindergarteners to college seniors—are heading back to the classroom. For parents and educators, the focus is on curriculum and supplies. But for facility managers, the focus is on a different challenge: Health.

Schools and universities are high-density environments where germs spread quickly. At Vaakawi, we believe that a healthy environment is a prerequisite for effective learning. That is why we are proud to announce the nationwide expansion of our Educational Institutions Division.

If the airport lines and booked-out resorts are any indication, travel is officially back. As Phoenix—and the rest of the country—prepares for a record-breaking tourism season in 2023, the hospitality industry is facing immense pressure to deliver pristine experiences to guests.

At Vaakawi, we know that guest satisfaction starts the moment they walk through the lobby doors. That is why we are excited to announce the major expansion of our Hospitality & Resort Cleaning Division.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PHOENIX, AZ – March 15, 2022 – Vaakawi (formerly Bacahui Services), a premier provider of commercial cleaning and facility maintenance services, is proud to announce the celebration of its 30th anniversary. This milestone marks three decades of continuous growth, resilience, and commitment to maintaining healthy environments for Arizona businesses.

Founded in 1992 in Tucson, Arizona, as "Bacahui Carpet," the company began as a small, family-owned operation focused on residential floor care. Over the decades, the business pivoted to meet the growing demands of the Arizona market, shifting its focus entirely to commercial janitorial services and relocating its headquarters to the Phoenix metropolitan area.

"Reaching 30 years is a testament to the trust our clients place in us and the hard work of our crews," said the Operations Director at Vaakawi. "We have evolved from a single carpet van in Tucson to a fleet of violet and orange trucks serving some of the largest office complexes and facilities in the Valley. While our initial process to change our name happened in 2020 to reflect our modern identity, our core values of reliability and 100% satisfaction have never wavered."
