Advanced security solutions

While strategic M&A has been an important contributor to our overall growth over the years, we continue to be selective in our assessment of potential deals given the high interest rate environment,” said Steve Jones, global chairman and CEO of Allied Universal. “In 2024, we acquired six companies that continue our domestic and international expansion and provide additional opportunities in Asia Pacific, Caribbean, Europe, as well as the U.S."  

As the acquirer of choice in the global security sector, we are excited to add these businesses to the team. Combining our areas of expertise enables Allied Universal to deliver the most advanced security solutions to help safeguard more businesses, schools and communities around the world.”
