Following Kingdom’s two most recent acquisitions of Basingstoke based MJF Security in January and of Sunwin Managed Security from Cardtronics, Inc., the world’s largest retail ATM operator, earlier this month, Kingdom is delighted to have risen from joint 13th to 9th in the Infologue.com Top 30 Table of UK Security Companies.
Alongside the movement in the table, Kingdom was also profiled in an article on Infologue.com entitled “Barton’s Kingdom Expands with Two New Acquisitions”, alongside a photo of Kingdom’s Managing Director, Terry Barton BA Hons Law. The article noted that:
“Wigan based Kingdom Security has added £24.5 million to its £50 million security services annual turnover in the first two months of 2015 with two security services businesses acquisitions. This moves Kingdom Security from joint 13th in the Infologue.com Top 30 Table of UK Security Companies 2014 to 9th.”
The article went on to note that the deals significantly change the shape of the Infologue.com Top 30 Table of UK Security Companies and so they have provisionally updated the table as a result. The full article and full table can be viewed here.
