97-year-old Harry Green says he’s been given a new lease of life after finding
new owners to drive his company forward.

Last year Harry decided the time was right for new management to take over the
running of his Leicester cleaning pad business.



He didn’t have far to look because neighbours Priyesh, Amit and Niraj Mandalia
were ready to buy the business – while keeping Harry on the team as a
part-shareholder.

Silver Lady Cleaning makes non-scratch scourers and pads under the brand name
Miracle Cleaner and Harry's family has a history in the knitwear industry dating
back a century.

The Mandalia brothers’ plan is to make the business, which already has
international clients, go digital, become sustainable and conquer the UK – a
market it has yet to develop.

The new owners – helped by mum Jayshree and dad Chiman Mandalia – are garment
manufacturers who have had a unit above Harry’s for the past 10 years. Both
businesses are based up the road from the Leicestershire County Cricket ground.



Harry said he was delighted with the new direction his company was headed in.

He said: “This has given me a new lease on life and I’m learning lots of things.

“I’ve joined the Mandalia brothers to bring our product to the local market and
I’m excited to see where the business goes with our combined experience and
backgrounds.”

Priyesh Mandalia said: “Harry has a wealth of knowledge and experience. We
bought the business, asked him to continue working with us for as long as he
wanted and made him a shareholder.

“He’s a phenomenal guy with a great mind and work ethic. He was going to close
the business and it would have been a shame to let that all go.

“We want to expand because we love this product and want to share it. Harry is a
shrewd businessman and has built a unique product with longevity. He’s such an
inspiration and makes us want to do better. The possibilities are endless.

“We sell about 12,000 pieces each month to New Zealand but nothing here. I’d say
one of our main challenges is exposure.

“We don’t know who to target or which doors we should be knocking on but I know
we want to expand.”

The business also exports to South Africa and Spain, with the products
manufactured on machines built by Harry, with many of the parts taken from old
knitwear machines.

As well as scouring pads, new lines have been introduced including dishcloths.


Priyesh Mandalia and Harry Green at Silver Lady Cleaning

Mr Mandalia said over the past few months they had also spent time finding ways
to lower their carbon footprint and be more sustainable – swapping product
header cards to recycled paper and using disposable cotton to stitch the pads
together.

They are also working with De Montfort University to make their sponges
bacteria-free. If that works, they could then be reused in playgrounds for
example or bouncy castle pits.

The business also sources locally or within the UK and all its products go by
ship to international customers.

Mr Mandalia said they had been helped with their growth plans by
Leicestershire’s Business Gateway Growth Hub, which is part-European funded and
delivered by a partnership including Leicester City Council, Leicestershire
County Council, East Midlands Chamber and the Leicester and Leicestershire
Enterprise Partnership.

He said: “We were contacted by business adviser manager Russ Pacey following our
initial enquiry.

“We had an amazing conversation about Harry, our plans to grow in the UK and
what help might be available.

“Our timing must have been spot on as just that week a new £2,500 business
support grant had opened, which Russ talked us through. We applied straight away
for funding to help with marketing support.

Mr Pacey said: “This is a fantastic story transcending barriers of background,
age, culture and experience. People working together with a common goal.

“I’m pleased I was able to signpost the grant. This kind of one-off grant or
support programme pop up from time to time so it’s always worth staying in touch
with the Business Gateway.”
