July 23, 2008—Melbourne-based BSC AMC Cleaning has won the right to clean Beijing’s main Olympic Stadium during the Olympic Games, including the athletes’ change areas and VIP suites. “This contract is a landmark for us because of the importance of the stadium, both to Beijing and to the Chinese people,” said AMC Cleaning chief executive Stephen Coade.
Two other companies, both local Chinese firms, have won a share of the contract to clean the stadium dubbed the Bird’s Nest. The company that performs best at the Games will win the ongoing cleaning contract.
“The Olympics is the most significant thing to happen in China for decades – and for our company to be at the heart of it is very exciting,” said Coade. “We are the only Australian company to get in, which is very pleasing.” AMC Cleaning now employs 1,200 people in Australia and has a 4,000-strong workforce in China .
AMC is a commercial cleaning company headquartered in the state of Victoria, with offices throughout Australia and China. For more information, see the Web site.
