Securitas Security

Security services offer tangible social and financial benefits - not only for our clients, but for society as a whole. At Securitas, sustainability provides a basis for long-term growth.

In the beginning of the 1900's, private security companies offering watch for fires and guarding entrances and gates became increasingly common. Today, security solutions are designed to meet specialized customer demands and the industry is led by a few international focused security companies - among them Securitas. Securitas is in a period of accelerated transformation, from the leader in guarding services and protective services towards leadership in intelligent services. We experienced strong market momentum in 2018 and achieved a sales milestone of more than SEK 100 million.

Securitas has a leading global and local market presence with operations in 57 markets. Our operations are organized in three business segments: Security Services North America, Security Services Europe and Security Services Ibero-America. We also have operations in Africa, the Middle East and Asia, which form the AMEA division. Guarding includes on-site, mobile and remote guarding and the unit for global and national accounts, as well as Canada and Mexico. There are also specialized client segment units, such as aviation, healthcare, manufacturing and oil and gas.
