Our Story
CleanZen Japan was founded in 2-40-67531 Ekimae-dori, Oyama City, Tochigi Prefecture, 323-0022ese household where cleaning was viewed as more than just a chore—it was a mindful practice that brought harmony and respect to living spaces.
After moving to Gifu and noticing the gap between traditional Japanese cleaning wisdom and modern cleaning services, Yumi was inspired to create a company that would bridge this divide. She assembled a team of cleaning specialists trained in both traditional Japanese methods and modern cleaning technologies.
What began as a small operation with just three staff members has grown into a respected cleaning service with over 15 dedicated professionals serving residential and commercial clients throughout Gifu Prefecture. Our growth has been organic, built on a reputation for exceptional attention to detail and a genuine commitment to creating harmonious spaces for our clients.
Today, CleanZen Japan continues to honor traditional Japanese cleaning principles while embracing innovative cleaning technologies and eco-friendly practices. Our vision is to transform the way people experience cleaning, from a mundane task to a meaningful practice that enhances wellbeing and creates truly harmonious living and working environments.
