During the four years that we have been in existence, we have midwifed several business expansions into foreign markets. The largest among them was Magal Security Systems. We supported the entry of this world class company into the Kenyan market where they set up end-to-end, fully integrated security solutions for Kenya’s main seaport at Mombasa.
Securing this seven-kilometre seaport was particularly important given its status as the main sea gateway into Kenya plus the entire East and Central Africa. This Mombasa seaport is managed by the Kenya Ports Authority which adopted the ISPS Code to secure the port, with support from the World Bank. In securing it, we supported Magal Security Systems to provide the following turnkey solutions that were implemented upon completion:
-
Conduct a comprehensive threat analysis
-
Introduction of high-end thermal imaging cameras and charge coupled device cameras.
-
Smart fence as the first layer of security.
-
Infra-red detectors
-
Verification and tracking cameras
-
Secure more than twenty gates with anti-terror barriers
-
Intelligent video analytics
-
Onsite cameras for monitoring gates and offices within the port.
-
A fibre network that is more than 25 kilometres to ensure end to end connectivity.
