ITS MY HOUSE: Cost efficient ways to invest in resourceful security services

Loading player...
George Fitzroy, managing director of security services at Servest talks about the recent release of the quarter two crime statistics 2022/2023, an 18.5% increase has been noted in crimes under sub category aggravated robbery, which saw an rise in the majority of robbery at residential and non-residential premises cases reported to the police.
The holiday season is peak time for family vacations and leisure, and for businesses, it a time to expand sales. Unfortunately, it is also often peak season for criminals. One of the biggest challenges South Africa faces is an increase in armed robberies over the holiday season as consumers and homeowners tend to indulge. Securing your property is most crucial to avoid falling victim to minor and major crimes. Furthermore, these rising crime rates urge companies to usher in a new era of home and facility security that works to minimize the impact of crime across the board.
We would like to propose an interview on your show with George Fitzroy, managing director of security services at facilities management company - Servest to discuss the impact of security solutions that enhance the value and safety of residential and non-residential premises.
