Title: Custom Maintenance Services’ Michael Nawa Helped Define America’s Contract Sweeping Industry
Michael Nawa
Michael Nawa has been involved in the parking lot sweeping industry almost since its inception. In 1976, Nawa founded Industrial Grounds Maintenance (IGM) with his father, Andrew. He ran that operation until 2002, when he quit over differences of opinion with his dad on the directions the firm should take.
When he sold his interest in IGM to his father, Nawa transferred his leadership skills to Custom Maintenance Services, Inc. That was a two-year-old company founded and still owned by Nawa’s wife, Judy. Today, ten years later, the company sweeps over 240 properties with its fleet of 18 sweepers, as well as provides an extensive property maintenance solution for many of those customers.
