Retail security officers in Glasgow
Retail loss is not just stock. It is staff who do not feel safe on shift and customers who stop coming back. Our retail officers give Glasgow stores a visible deterrent and a calm, trained response when something does happen.
Deterrence on the floor
A uniformed officer at the door changes behaviour before anything is taken. Ours stay approachable and help customers as well as watching the floor, because an officer who is talking to shoppers is also the one who notices what is off. We cover city centre stores, retail parks and shopping centres across Glasgow.
Backing your staff up
Retail staff should never be the ones confronting a thief. Our officers handle incidents, detentions and police handover to the correct procedure, monitor CCTV where you want it covered, and write it up afterwards so you have what you need for prosecution or for your insurer.

From first call to officers on site
Four steps, and you know exactly what happens at each one before you commit to anything.
-
01
Site survey
We attend your premises, assess the risk properly and put a written proposal in front of you. No quote is issued from a phone call and a postcode.
-
02
Agreed procedures
Alarm zones, escalation contacts, access arrangements and reporting requirements are documented and signed off before an officer sets foot on site.
-
03
Officers assigned
A named team is allocated to your contract and briefed on your site file, so the people attending know the building before their first shift.
-
04
Ongoing reporting
Written records after every attendance, reviewed with you at agreed intervals and retained for the life of the contract.
