  • CEO & Founder, Garrett McAlister

    Entrepreneurship started early. Garrett began his journey in grade school where he sold candy on the school bus. In college he started a t-shirt company and after graduation a small chain of candy stores.

    Later he worked for a Fortune 500 technology company holding various roles in sales, channels, project management and business intelligence. This spanned 16 years, while also running a large eBay business selling cars & other stuff online. This eventually led to opening a local car dealership, still on the side.

    In 2016 he left corporate life and opened the master distributorship for SkyVac® USA & Canada, eventually adding The Mosmatic Professional, Ionic Systems USA and other niche cleaning brands to this international portfolio. 

    Clean Direct® was incorporated in 2019 and has become the "umbrella" brand representing multiple manufacturers in the specialty cleaning industry. All of this has been built on a unique online selling platform called Clean Direct®.

    Clean Direct's goal is to become the #1 specialty cleaning source in North America. We serve professional cleaners and facility managers.

    In 2020 Clean Direct® relocated to a large distribution facility located in Sanford NC. Please feel free to visit the showroom.
