Lisburn firm ‘secures’ CastleCourt contract

Mercury, which also has offices in Dublin and London, boasts an impressive portfolio of retail clients and shopping centres including the Kennedy Centre, Abbey Centre, Park Centre, Connswater and Bow Street Mall.

The CastleCourt contract was awarded following a rigorous tender process in which Mercury pitched an integrated solution that combines 24 hour manned guarding with the latest CCTV and monitoring technology to protect the assets of the shopping centre and its tenants.

A core team of 18 well-equipped guards, with fast access to additional support and resources if required will service the account, led by Mercury’s Regional Director UK and Ireland Liam Cullen.

“This is a very prestigious contract and everyone at Mercury Security is delighted to be working in partnership with the team at CastleCourt Shopping Centre,” said Mr Cullen.

“We believe that our integrated solution of manned guards alongside the latest in CCTV technology, monitored by our award-winning NSI Gold ARC/RVRC Monitoring Centre will provide vital protection to the Centre and its tenants,” he added.

Stewart McConnell, CastleCourt Security Manager, said: “At CastleCourt we pride ourselves on the excellent standards of security we have maintained over the years and we are confident that Mercury Security Management will enhance that going forward.”
