Retail moves fast. At a busy BC Liquor Store, cooler doors get smudged, entrances pick up scuffs, and washrooms see constant use—often all within the first hour of opening. The store asked for something simple to say, but tricky to pull off: keep everything looking brand-new throughout the day without getting in the way of customers or staff. That’s where Edomey came in.
How Edomey Keeps the BC Liquor Store Guest-Ready All Day
The challenge and how we handled it
Traffic never really stops. The front needs to look great for shoppers, the back needs to stay tidy for staff, and safety can’t slip when lines form or deliveries arrive. Lighting, glass, and floors also need to look sharp so the products stand out. And all of this has to happen while business carries on.
How we handled it
We set up a retail cleaning program that blends after-hours cleaning with smart daytime support, so the store looks cared for between night cleans. On the sales floor, we focus on what customers notice first: crystal-clear cooler doors and handles, clean and dry floors (including those high-traffic entrance lanes), and bright, dust-free lighting and signage. We also keep carts and baskets clean, stay on top of glass and mirrors, and give grout and washrooms the extra care they need.
Behind the scenes, staff areas stay neat so the team can move quickly. When the seasons change or the weather demands it, we bring in pressure washing for the storefront and loading areas. Concrete touch-ups at the entrance make first impressions feel fresh. We coordinate bulb replacements with management so displays look bright. And if the store is doing a small retrofit, we can clean around it without getting in the way.
All of this sits on top of Edomey’s broader commercial services, so help is always close at hand: comprehensive office cleaning, day porter service, daily and periodic programs, window cleaning, carpet care, complete floor care, post-construction cleaning, high dusting, washroom and grout cleaning, interior and exterior pressure washing, disaster recovery, and litter pickup. For retail specifically, we also cover cooler care, shopping cart cleaning, concrete maintenance, retrofit cleaning, and (when needed) mold restoration.
How long it took (estimate)
From the first walk-through to a steady, “this just works” routine, programs like this usually settle in at about six weeks. After that, we run monthly quality checks and adjust for holidays and rush periods.
What the store noticed
Daytime touch-ups meant the space stayed photo-ready, not just “clean last night.” Spill response was faster, so floors felt safer. Glass, lighting, and high dusting kept the whole store looking brighter. Managers spent less time chasing small issues because communication was simple—quick photos, quick fixes, done. The best part? This exact setup can be used across other locations with the same standards and reporting.
