Specialist Security Provider The Marshals Group PLC Continues Expansion

UK based security group The Marshals Group PLC (“TMG”) continues their expansion with the purchase of a specialist maritime security provider, Sea Marshals Risk Management Ltd.

SeaMarshals is a UK based maritime security specialist that provides armed guards in the hostile waters off the Somalia coast for protection of commercial ships.

TMG was formed only a few months back with the aim of building up a diverse range of security solutions under one umbrella says Chief Business Developer, Joakim Jacobsson from TMG. He continues, “It’s a perfect match for us, we can use much of the knowledge SeaMarshals bring with it and it already services many of the clients we target with our other products and solutions”.

SeaMarshals Risk Management Ltd is one of the oldest maritime security providers in the industry, an industry that saw exceptional growths in 2009-2011 when Somali pirates were as most active.

The development of modern piracy, mainly of the Somalia coast, was the main story behind the 2013 American biographical survival thriller film Captain Phillips directed by Paul Greengrass and starring Tom Hanks.
