Fikes Fixed It - Red Wing Applebee's
The Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar in Red Wing has been a customer of Fikes for about 3 years, receiving our scenting services for their restrooms.
Â
In March of this year, they signed up for our quarterly Premium Care service, which is a deep clean of floors and walls. According to General Manager, Scott, our service was fantastic! After showing his boss what a difference the Premium Care had on their restrooms, they are excited to expand our services into more of their locations!

We talked with Amanda Daugherty, Marketing and Regional Property Manager of Skyline, and here is what her and her team had to say about Fikes:
Â
