Mfg. of Comm. Floor Machines & Industrial Vacuums
Business Description
Manufacturing of Commercial Floor Machines and Industrial Vacuum Systems
This is a well-established Canadian manufacturer of commercial floor machines and industrial-grade vacuum systems. With over 60 years of continuous operation, the business has built a strong reputation for durable, multi-function equipment trusted by institutional, commercial, and professional cleaning customers across Canada. The business is uniquely positioned as the only domestic manufacturer in its category, benefiting from strong “Made-in-Canada” demand, long-standing distributor relationships, and a loyal base of repeat end-user customers. The company generates consistent revenues with attractive gross margins and has demonstrated resilience and adaptability across multiple economic cycles. Day-to-day operations are efficient and well understood, supported by an experienced team and proven production processes, providing a smooth transition for a new owner while offering clear and achievable opportunities for growth, particularly through the continued expansion of direct-to-consumer sales and deeper penetration of institutional markets.
About the Business

- Employees

- Currently Relocatable

- Facilities & Assets
- The company operates from a clean, well-organized 11,000 sq. ft. leased facility that comfortably supports its manufacturing, assembly, and administrative functions. The space is laid out in a practical and efficient manner, allowing materials, production, and shipping to move smoothly without unnecessary complexity. Currently operating at approximately 60% capacity, the facility provides meaningful room for a new owner to scale production without the need for immediate capital investment, expansion, or relocation.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The competitive landscape includes a range of international manufacturers and lower-cost imported products, many of which compete primarily on price and volume. While these alternatives are widely available, they often lack the consistency, service support, and long-term reliability valued by professional and institutional customers. This business stands apart through its long-standing presence in the market and its reputation for dependable, well-built equipment that performs consistently over time.
- Opportunities for Growth
- The business is well-positioned for continued growth across multiple channels, supported by a diversified customer base and a scalable operating model. Currently, approximately 69% of sales are generated through an established network of roughly 150 cleaning supply distributors across Canada and select U.S. markets, while the remaining 31% comes from direct sales to end users. The direct sales channel represents the most compelling near-term growth opportunity, as it is expanding rapidly and delivers the highest margins.
