Now Celebrating 61 Years of Service.

    The Kenway philosophy centers on creating a family atmosphere, while staying focused on product and service. "We align ourselves with major, quality manufacturers," explains Ken Crutcher, president of Kenway Distributors, Inc. "And we work hand-in-hand with them. We stick to one manufacturer per product group and sell and service that product better than anyone else."

     Kenway’s real-world Jan/San experience is gained through the chain of janitorial service companies that it operates. These businesses are completely separate from Kenway Distributors.

    Kenway has over 75,000 square feet of warehouse and office facilities with branches in Lexington and Owensboro, Kentucky, stocked with merchandise from major manufacturers such as Johnson Wax, Clarke, James River, and Triple S.

  Through our management team and sales staff, we can provide you with in-service training, seminars and product education for your staff, either at your facility or in Louisville at our Corporate Headquarters.

    Servicing you, our customer, has always been our top priority and we pledge to continue that policy now and in the future.

Here at Kenway, we believe that all of our customers should recieve top of the line training at no extra cost. We also believe that when you buy a product it is useless until you know how to use it.  Kenway prides itself on offering service after the sale.  Tired of some salesman coming in and selling you on some new program and then turning around and charging you for training that you wouldn't have needed in the first place, or even worse, they just leave you hanging with no training at all!!  You won't be finding any of that here at Kenway Distributors!!

The demand for a cleaner, brighter, more sanitary building environment is greater now than ever before. Modern facilities, greater traffic flow, newer materials and surfaces, along with new procedures, require a better knowledge of proper housekeeping practices. As a result, today’s custodian must be a specialist in every area of building maintenance.

Regulatory compliance is another area that all building maintenance personnel must keep up to date. OSHA regulations such as the hazard communication standard, bloodborne pathogens standard and personal protection equipment must be dealt with on a daily basis. Other areas of concern are ADA requirements, VOC compliance, indoor air quality issues and slip and fall injuries.

Today’s cleaning procedures and regulatory compliance can be very puzzling. Kenway can provide you with all the expertise necessary to keep your buildings looking great while meeting all government regulations.
