Security Guarding and System Companies have increased rapidly in Kenya. Currently we have around 4000 registered companies in Kenya. The rise of terrorism has led to increased business opportunities for both local and international companies. In addition to small businesses that provide services for individual and businesses, multinational companies have set up in the country, eyeing security contracts for large-scale infrastructure, including ports and oil and gas operations. Kenya currently spends between US$50m to $100m annually on security equipment, according to Amar Taylor from AUA Industria. Although demand for world-class security systems has increased, the associated high costs make it unaffordable for many organizations.
