At The Merrion Centre, 123 Albion Street (pictured) and three residential schemes in Leeds city centre, owned by property investment and car parking operator Town Centre Securities PLC (TCS), a three year contract to deliver security services has gone to AM Services Group.
The contractor will provide CCTV monitoring, shopping mall security, concierge and reception services and admin support. The Merrion Centre, in the Leeds Arena Quarter, is home to high street brands besides independent retailers and leisure operators.
