All of our mobile patrol officers are expertly equipped to deal with the rigours of securing a shopping centre or retail park, with vehicles and sophisticated equipment where necessary.

Our highly trained operatives are committed to providing rapid responses to disturbances and are fully prepared to coordinate with emergency services when the situation requires it.
Securing your premises and ensuring peace of mind are the key drivers behind our key holding and alarm response package here at ProFM Group. This service adds an additional layer of reassurance to complement your existing security measures, allowing you to maintain control over the ongoing safety of your shop.
As part of this package, we securely store duplicate keys for your property at both an undisclosed off-site location and on-site. Our round-the-clock availability ensures that we can offer locking and unlocking services tailored to your specific preferences, plus our swift response to alarms ensures you always maintain control over any issues that may arise.

There’s no doubt all us come into contact with retailers at least once a week. Whether that’s in our weekly shop, buying presents ahead of a birthday, or simply picking up these forgotten few bits, it’s all a testament to the ubiquitous nature of the retail sector. That ever-presence, however, is often to the detriment of businesses in that industry.
The British Retail Consortium’s 2023 report found that the average cost of retail crime was a startling £1.04 billion a year, with more than 8 million instances of theft in the last year alone. While larger businesses will bear the brunt of those numbers, small businesses suffer equally, with the Association of Convenience Stores estimating that theft from small stores costs an average of £1,066.
