Kingdom acquires

by Mark Rowe

The contractor Kingdom reports the acquisition of MJF Security as of January 1. Based in Basingstoke, MJF is a multi-disciplined business with a client base within London and the Home Counties.

Terry Barton, Managing Director of St Helens-based Kingdom said: “The acquisition is an excellent start to 2015 and reflects our ongoing business strategy to continue our growth through retention of business, organic wins, strategic acquisition and the introduction of new services such as our new Intelligence & Specialist Support division. MJF represents the continued desire for Kingdom to significantly increase its market share and further strengthen our national infrastructure and extensive customer base. We welcome the MJF team into Kingdom and look forward to meeting with our new customers and maintaining the high level of service they have grown accustomed to whilst being able to introduce additional services and innovations.”

From a beginning in 1993 with seven security officers, Kingdom reports that it’s become one of the largest privately owned companies in the UK, a specialist in security and cleaning. With a fresh approach to the support services market and adapting to the proliferation of new technologies and emerging security threats, Kingdom has some 14 North to South regional support offices.
