Coverall Cleaning Concepts
Appoints New COO Patrick Joyce
Former Procter & Gamble Exec
Joins Commercial Cleaning Provider
BOCA RATON, FL (December 11th, 2007) – Coverall Cleaning Concepts, a leading commercial
cleaning franchising organization, today announced the expansion of its
executive team with the appointment of Patrick Joyce to serve as chief
operating officer. Patrick Joyce has spent the past seven years in various
group and global financial management positions with Procter & Gamble, and
previously was an operations officer with the United States Marine Corps.
In his new post, Patrick Joyce is
responsible for managing Coverall Cleaning Concepts sales and operations in all
territories owned and operated by the company.
He oversees all regional directors and regional vice presidents in those
territories and also works directly with the corporate support staff to optimize
business procedures, sales plans, marketing materials and other operational
tools. He reports to Ted Elliott,
President and CEO.
“The size of our organization requires a
strong operations manager with vision, experience and the leadership to move
everyone in the same direction,” Elliott said. “Patrick Joyce has the skills and track record
to help us strengthen the systems we have in place, leverage those systems to
develop new business opportunities, and continue to enhance our leadership
position in the industry.”
“Coverall Cleaning Concepts is among the
best-known brands in the commercial cleaning business, but the industry remains
highly fragmented and therefore offers nearly unlimited growth opportunities,” Patrick
Joyce said. “The company is ideally
positioned to target that open market space. All of my energies are now focused
on sharpening our internal systems, exploring new business strategies, and otherwise
meeting the challenge of driving the next phase of growth.”
Patrick Joyce joined Procter & Gamble in
2000 and served successively as Group Finance Manager for Upstream Ventures
with the Commercial Products Group, Global Financial Manager for Fabric Care,
and Global Financial Manager for Snacks and Coffee. His accomplishments included new market
development, negotiation of long-term contracts with retailers such as The
Kroger Company and Wendy’s International, and global short-term financial
planning for divisions that sell well-known brands such as Tide, Downy, Bounce,
Folgers and Pringles.
His previous experience includes seven years
with the United States Marine Corps, where he rose from infantry platoon
