ArmorGroup mobilises to support Hurricane Relief effort

ArmorGroup International, the leading international provider of defensive protective security services and security training services, announces today that it is has mobilised a contingent of personnel and associated assets to the US Gulf coast in support of the disaster relief effort following Hurricane Katrina.

ArmorGroup personnel were amongst the first of the private security specialists on the ground in New Orleans following the hurricane, after ArmorGroup’s services were requested by a number of its existing, large, private sector clients from the reconstruction, media and oil and gas industries. ArmorGroup’s personnel are playing a key role in the recovery efforts by providing protective security for clients’ personnel, assets and critical infrastructure as they engage in disaster relief as well as providing basic humanitarian aid such as supplying support packages of housing, fuel and food.

ArmorGroup Chief Executive Officer, Jerry Hoffman, commented: “ArmorGroup extends its heartfelt sympathy to the victims of Hurricane Katrina. It has been terrible to watch this disaster unfold and we are committed to helping all who have been struck by the terrible conditions and hardships created by the devastation.

ArmorGroup has over 16 years experience providing support for international humanitarian operations world-wide, so it is just a logical step to get involved with the disaster relief effort in the USA. At this point, all our efforts are focused on providing physical security for our client’s personnel assets and infrastructure as they concentrate on the urgent recovery and reconstruction tasks in the area.”
