Mike Sawchuk, formerly an executive vice president at Avmor and Enviro-Solutions, both cleaning chemical solutions manufacturers based in Canada, has launched a new consulting firm, Sawchuk Consulting.
“I started Sawchuk Consulting as a way to utilize my extensive and multilevel experience in helping businesses grow and prosper,” says Sawchuk. “Working with the great people at Avmor, Enviro-Solutions, as well as UL/Environment, I was able to help these companies build their brands, improve operations and management, and develop new markets and opportunities.”
As an example of what he has accomplished, Sawchuk points to his work at Enviro-Solutions.
“Even at the lowest points of the Great Recession, when many jan/san organizations were struggling, Enviro-Solutions was growing more than 30 percent each year, and secured 27 new distributors in the U.S., as well as distributors in Taiwan and Denmark.”
Sawchuk says the focus of his new company is to assist senior leaders and the owners of mid-size to large jan/san-related companies – manufacturers, distributors and contract cleaners – with the following:
• Develop and execute corporate strategies that drive sales growth
• Help implement strategies that reduce operating costs and expenses
• Boost revenues and profits
• Offer assistance during management changes
• Build company morale
• Create innovative marketing and PR strategies
• Brand optimization
"Mike has demonstrated repeatedly that he is a tremendous team builder and can get things done, even when there are limited resources,” says Gordon McArthur, founder of Enviro-Solutions and formerly a top senior executive at Colgate Palmolive. “He has a thorough understanding of the key business levers, the factors that influence each, and how to develop specific strategies and tactics to capitalize on opportunities."
