Unica started out in 2007 as a part-time janitorial service. Ms. Galvan would work evenings after leaving her 8:00-5:00, full-time job with Bell Helicopter, where she was a Contracts Administrator. Ms. Galvan decided to start a janitorial company after doing extensive research on different industries. She decided to go into janitorial because there was a great need for cleaning services in the DFW area. Though the country was going through an economic downturn at the time, she found it was the best time to start a business.
After two years of working full-time at Bell and running her business part-time, Ms. Galvan had established a sufficient amount of janitorial contract work to where she could leave her full-time job, permanently. 15 years later, Unica is still going strong, proudly servicing numerous commercial accounts throughout the DFW Metroplex as well as the U.S. Federal Government, Department of Defense, Homeland Security, and General Services Administration.
As for our name, we are always asked by customers and vendors, "What does Unica mean?" Growing up as the only daughter and having three older brothers, Ms. Galvan's mother lovingly called her "La Unica" or "The Only Girl". Over the years, the name stuck and came to remind her of her proud Mexican heritage, while serving as a constant reminder of her parent's lifelong struggle to create a better life for their children.
