Mi-T-M’s January 2017 Dealer Spotlight: Swift Industrial Cleaning Solutions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lyle Swift often yearns for his former way of doing business. \u201cSomebody should close the internet and let us get back to work the old-fashioned way,\u201d he jokes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Hot<\/a>
Lyle Swift, owner of Swift Industrial Cleaning Solutions<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The president of Swift Industrial Cleaning Solutions started his Cincinnati-area pressure cleaning business in 1999. He misses the days of dropping in to see his customers, shooting the breeze, and providing personalized service. Swift says that one-on-one type of doing business changed after 911.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe can no longer go to the back door and talk to Joe and check on the machine,\u201d he explains. \u201cNow we go to the front door, talk to the front desk, and try to get to Joe . . . except Joe doesn\u2019t work there anymore and they no longer give out names or phone numbers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Swift has changed with the times. With his outgoing personality, he\u2019s never met a stranger. And he\u2019s thrilled no two days at work are the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe great thing about this industry is that I can sell to a hog farmer in the morning, get barn yard debris on my feet, stop by the office, change clothes, and go see a VP of Engineering in the afternoon,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Swift and his staff have more than 90 years of shared experience servicing industrial pressure washers and wastewater systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Swift Industrial serves a wide variety of industries\u2014including manufacturing, transportation, aerospace, construction, recycling, food service, painting\/resurfacing, and industrial cleaning contractors\u2014and sells, services, and rents many types of equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cMeeting the needs of industry with quality and service has always been our slogan,\u201d he said. \u201cI guess I have also looked at it as, \u2018It\u2019s not the big that eats the small, but the fast that eats the slow.\u2019 After all, we are Swift.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ohio customers appreciate the outstanding customer service and high-quality equipment they find at Swift Industrial. The company has cemented its lines in both pressure washers and parts washers, and has carried the same lines for many years.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cThis helps our current and potential customers realize the stability we offer,\u201d adds Swift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Things have changed quite a bit since Swift began his company 17 years ago. Back then he didn\u2019t even have a forklift or dock, so he contracted with a local lumber yard to drop off his orders. He\u2019s proud of the partnerships he\u2019s formed, especially with Mi-T-M.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA small company like mine couldn\u2019t ask for better support,\u201d Swift says. \u201cTheir quality is second to none. Having the floor plan has helped keep machines in stock, where many times you can\u2019t sell what you don\u2019t have. Their warranty support is better than any company I have worked with.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Swift is used to hard work and believes it has been the key to his company\u2019s success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI first climbed on the tractor solo 52 years ago, and was told to come home when the field was done,\u201d Swift says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But he\u2019s ready for and heading toward retirement. An avid hunter, Swift loves spending time in the Rocky Mountains on a horse. He also enjoys time on the links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to retirement, heading that direction and getting there are two different things. He\u2019s grateful his daughter, Brandy, is working and learning the business from the office out to the service bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn today\u2019s economy, everybody is complaining of no jobs, and it is so hard to find quality help,\u201d says Swift. \u201cThey either want the rainbow, or have no experience or both.\u201d Swift\u2019s name is on all his trucks and he must consider how employees represent his business. Training and retention are also ongoing issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given these concerns, his retirement will most likely include taking off just September and October. He\u2019d like to spend that time in the mountains; in the summer, he wants to stop work about 3 p.m. and play golf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOther than that, what else is there to do but work?\u201d he asks. \u201cIt keeps the mind going, and for those of you that know me, that in itself, is a lot<\/strong> of work,\u201d he quips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based in Cleves, Ohio, Swift Industrial<\/a> offers a complete line of industrial equipment, including portable generators, pressure washers, portable heaters, water treatment systems, jobsite boxes, air compressors, and wet\/dry vacuums.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
