Dean Lancaster studied ”Food Technology and Marketing” and has been in the food industry for the past 25 years. 10 years into his career he identified a need for specialized hygiene and sanitation cleaning programs for the Food Industry and so Advanced Cleaning Services was born. Partnered by Sandra Lancaster who had extensive experience in Human Resources and Administration they created a vibrant family owned and operated cleaning business. 20 years later Advanced Cleaning Services has grown into a national company with over 2000 employees and is well recognized as leaders not only in the food processing industry but also in Retail, Flavour and Fragrance houses, Distribution Centres and Commercial cleaning.

At ACS Dean has ensured the emphasis is placed on client relationships and we pride ourselves on our ability to nurture partnerships with our clients in order to adhere to high industry standards.

ACS pioneered and developed a fully comprehensive quality management scanning system that guarantees all services performed onsite could be tracked and monitored onsite and remotely.
