ABU DHABI, UAE – Securiguard Middle East, a subsidiary of Palms Sports, announced that it has been awarded a substantial US$109 million (AED 403.5 million) site security service contract extending over four years.
The contract can be extended for an additional two years in the event of satisfactory service, furthering Securiguard robust six-year partnership with the contracting UAE-based energy company.
Under the new contract’s extension, Securiguard Middle East will deploy a team of more than 2,000 highly experienced and qualified security guards that will meticulously safeguard various facilities, areas and sites throughout the emirate of Abu Dhabi.
The company’s comprehensive security services, including vigilant surveillance, access control, risk management, and emergency response measures, will cover a wide range of locations.

The contract solidifies Securiguard’s stature as the preferred private security provider of choice in UAE and further propels the company’s strategic vision for operational expansion across all emirates.
“Palms Sports is developing plans to accelerate and expand its investments in subsidiaries and the service segment. We are considering increasing our capital over the course of approximately three months to US$44.9 million (AED165 million),” Darwish added.
Securiguard Middle East was fully acquired by Palms Sports in a AED 300 million transaction last June, demonstrating the company’s steadfast dedication to expanding its footprint in the dynamic world of security services.
