Clearline Capital acquires established Commercial Cleaning companies across the UK.
Our Strategy
Clearline Capital was founded in 2025 with a clear mission: to build the UK’s leading group of commercial cleaning businesses through thoughtful acquisitions and hands-on operational stewardship.
Our strategy is focused and deliberate - we aim to acquire 1 to 2 business units per year. Each acquisition is approached with care, ensuring cultural alignment, operational stability, and long-term potential.
Post-acquisition, a dedicated Managing Director will be appointed to each business unit to lead operations, preserve company culture, and drive local performance. Meanwhile, Clearline Capital, as the parent group, remains focused on identifying the next strategic acquisition and supporting the broader growth of the group.
This is not a roll-up for the sake of scale - it’s a long-term platform designed to compound trust, people, and performance.
