I am a Sales Representative with Swan Dust Control servicing various communities in Southern Ontario. Swan Dust Control is a Canadian owned, multi-generation family business. They began operations in Waterloo as Swan Cleaners in 1945. As the years passed, the cleaning business grew into dust control as they introduced a mat and treated mop rental service to the community. Over the past 70 years, the business has expanded to provide service across Southern Ontario. The product line also increased to include a variety of mat services, treated dust mops, wet mops, dust cloths, and now PURELL® Hand Sanitizer and F-Matic Air Fresheners.Swan Dust Control’s approach to business is that of corporate sustainability that creates long-term consumer and employee value. We operate on a \"green\" strategy aimed toward maintaining and improving the natural environment while taking into consideration every dimension of how our business impacts our social, cultural, and economic surroundings.

ABOUT DOUGLAS DOCHERTY
Douglas Docherty – Sales Representative, Swan Dust Control My skills were developed during time spent with top tier companies such as Hallmark Cards where I mastered territory management and the integration of wholesale and retail markets. At H.B. Fenn, my efforts took me in the direction of national chains where I built successful relationships with accounts like Walmart, Costco, Staples and Toys “R” Us and my efforts were rewarded with unprecedented sales increases. McClelland and Stewart charged me with the responsibility of developing emerging markets in non-traditional publishing channels. I used my knowledge and experience to sell juvenile books into national drug store chains, craft books into national hardware chains and preselected book displays into independent stores across the country through a variety of methods that included direct calls, customer specific presentations, referrals and trade shows. I spend my free time with my wife Holly and my children and grand-children. I still find time to coach soccer and sit on a number of volunteer boards in the community. Specialties: Prospecting, New Business Development, Account Management, Business Retention Developing ignored geographical territories and unexplored industry markets.
