Facilities management firm Emrill has won a security contract from Emaar for the Downtown Dubai and Marina master communities. The firm notes that the win is enabling it to realise sustained growth in the UAE market.

“This contract award further strengthens Emrill’s position in the manned security services sector in the UAE. This contract win realises an important part of our strategic principle to build a successful business and is a credit to the commitment of our entire team for achieving this great result,” says Alex Davies, managing director, Emrill.

The FM company notes that data from Orbis Research forecasts that the Middle East’s manned security services sector is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.67% during the current period to 2021. In its statement, Emrill says that it fully intends to capitalise on the growth trend.

Davies explains, “While Emrill is recognised as a leader in the facilities management sector, our manned security portfolio is growing significantly based on the same principles of excellence in staff training and customer service. Emrill is focused upon being known for the same high standards in manned security services in the UAE and this major contract win is evidence of this commitment in action.”
