Pharo Cleaning Services (legal name Pharo Asset Services) provides commercial, strata, and office cleaning services to businesses and property managers across Sydney and regional NSW. The company delivers 24 distinct services across core cleaning, associated services (carpet, window, pressure washing, car park, waste removal, gardening, janitorial supplies, washroom, fogging and sanitising, mould control, pest, handyman, building management), and industry-specific verticals (healthcare, childcare, church, school, gym, retail, industrial, hospitality). Operations are supported by ISO9001 accreditation, police-checked staff, and full insurance coverage.

Product overview

Pharo Asset Services is a commercial cleaning company offering a portfolio of 24 distinct services across three tiers: core cleaning services (Commercial Cleaning, Office Cleaning, Strata Cleaning), associated/ancillary services (Carpet Cleaning, Window Cleaning, Pressure Washing, Car Park Cleaning, Waste Removal & Management, Gardening Services, Janitorial Supplies, Washroom Services, Fogging and Sanitising, Mould Control and Prevention, Pest Services, Handyman Services, Building Management), and industry-specific services (Gym Cleaning, Child Care Cleaning, Church Cleaning, School Cleaning, Health Care Cleaning, Retail Cleaning, Industrial Cleaning, Hospitality Cleaning). The portfolio is built around a service-delivery model rather than a software platform, combining tailored cleaning schedules, experienced on-site teams, and eco-friendly products to serve commercial, strata, and institutional clients across Sydney, the Northern Beaches, North Shore, Inner West, CBD, and regional NSW.

• Cleanoir: Australian commercial cleaning company offering office cleaning, carpet cleaning, and associated facility services to small and medium businesses. Comparable scale and target customer segments to Pharo.
• ARA Property Services: Australian strata and commercial cleaning specialist serving body corporates and property managers. Directly comparable to Pharo's strata cleaning segment with similar customer profile and service delivery model.

Others

• Cleanaway Waste Management: Australia's largest waste management company providing waste removal and recycling services. Adjacent to Pharo's waste removal offering for bin rooms and strata buildings, but operates at vastly different scale in a separate primary category.

Overlaps with Pharo's commercial and strata cleaning offerings but at much larger scale.
• Compass Group Australia: Major contract services group in Australia providing cleaning and facility services alongside food services. Competes with Pharo for large commercial and institutional cleaning contracts as part of a broader services portfolio.
• Programmed Maintenance Services: National provider of staffing, maintenance, and facility services including commercial cleaning across Australia. Provides integrated facility management at scale versus Pharo's boutique regional offering.
• Ventia Utility Services: Australian facility and infrastructure services provider with cleaning and building maintenance capabilities. Larger scale and broader geographic reach than Pharo but overlapping in commercial cleaning for offices and facilities.
• Spotless Group: Large Australian facility services provider offering commercial cleaning, building maintenance, and integrated facility management across multiple sectors and geographies. Represents the scaled incumbent Pharo would compete against for enterprise and multi-site contracts.
