Kleeneze Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of JRjr33, Inc., which trades as JRJR Networks has executed a £1.2 million ( $1.5 million ) funding agreement with the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, to finance the consolidation of its worldwide product logistics operations into a 100,000-square foot warehouse, fulfilment, distribution and office centre in Rochdale.
Kleeneze, a 94-year old direct sales organization, sells and distributes a wide range of household and beauty products through an extensive network of independent sales distributors throughout Great Britain and Europe.

Michael Khatkar, Kleeneze Managing Director said, “We are very pleased to have the opportunity to make this contribution to the local economy and to offer additional employment support to the region.

We look forward to a long and successful partnership with the GMCA.”
GMCA Lead member for Investment and Finance, Councillor Kieran Quinn said, “This investment shows that the Combined Authority has become a vital player in the commercial finance market. More and more firms are looking to us to support their growth plans and of course, we are only too happy to assist in the creation of more jobs and prosperity in the region.”
