Our history
SECOM Plc all began back in 1918, when the family-owned Lodge Lock and Safe Company was founded. Since then, we grew and acquired a number of related businesses, which then led to us to become the Carroll Security Group.
In 1991, Carroll was acquired by SECOM Co Ltd of Japan, turning us into the company you see today. Throughout these changes, we’ve retained our high standards of customer care and continue to put the security of our clients and their assets at the heart of our operations. We have grown from strength to strength ever since.
A leader in technological innovation and security solutions
Today, the SECOM Group employs over 53,000 people in nearly 2,800 locations worldwide, with operations in 12 countries. We have collective assets exceeding £7.5 billion and an annual turnover of £4.4 billion from nearly 2.7 million customers.
Together with our partners, and the dedication of everyone at SECOM, we have created a trusted organisation that has become synonymous with care, quality, and innovation.
Through our technological innovation and exemplary service, SECOM’s aim is to provide cost-conscious, reliable security solutions and a rapid response service, enabling everyone to protect what matters.
