A couple of months ago marked the start of a new partnership for Professional Security with premium retailer Whole Foods Market. We are delighted to have been awarded their security guarding needs across their London portfolio.
It is particularly important as it represents a success for our strategy of working with ethically aligned clients. Whole Foods Market are uncompromising in their drive for customer satisfaction and believe all team members are equally responsible for delighting customers. They do this by promoting team member development and happiness and driving win-win relationships with suppliers. Like Professional Security they strive to satisfy and delight all customers. We are delighted to be chosen to be their brand ambassadors at key stores.
Their value of caring about the community and the environment especially appealed to us as it aligns to our own social value plans, so we will learn with them how to improve our impact.
A massive thanks must go to our dedicated mobilisation team of Martin Leeder Guarding and Events Director, Operational Managers Kevin Ward and Susan Young and our incredible back office team of Michelle Booth Head of Operational Support and her amazing team of Becky Pickles and Sara Zayed from the Solutions team as they recruited and onboarded a near full team of officers for the deployment.
Our Guarding and Events Director, Martin Leeder has said of the win “We are delighted to have been awarded this contract amidst some stiff competition. It demonstrates our ability to compete against the sector leaders and our ability to successfully mobilise such a contract incorporating new radio technology, body worn surveillance units and experienced management support to assist the client in demonstrating their commitment to delivering the highest standards.”
Group Commercial Director Martin Woollam said of the win “It is fantastic to welcome such a high-profile retail client to our portfolio and further demonstrates our development strategy is working and gaining traction. We are delighted to be working with Whole Foods Market and partnering them with their security needs”
