Sanivac, a Family Business Since 1961
In 1961, John Kelly launched Sanivac, a company specializing in urban infrastructure maintenance and sanitation services. The Sanivac Group, which has spanned 3 generations of Kellys, now comprises: 425 employees, 8 branches, 275 trucks, and 15,000 sanitation units. The company is recognized by its small blue portable toilets, but Sanivac is much more than that!
