Chicago is a key market for armed security services in the US.
In Chicago, demand for armed security is driven by the Midwest's largest security market and talent pool and downtown corporate towers and financial institutions. The sectors that most rely on this service include corporate and financial services, hospitality and conventions, rail and logistics, with specific needs in areas such as the downtown Loop, the Magnificent Mile and hotel district, McCormick Place and the convention core. The city's main security concerns — corporate high-rise lobby and access control and industrial and rail-yard cargo theft — make working with a licensed, professional provider a priority investment for businesses and homeowners.
