A shop on Bodmin Retail Park may need a guard while a window is boarded, a contractor may want a plot watched after plant goes missing, and a farm may need patrols after a break-in. Our 24/7 control room arranges each as a temporary booking, drawing SIA-licensed officers from our Cornwall network, and can turn it into ongoing key holding or patrols once the immediate problem is dealt with. - Three industrial estates named within 5km - Agriculture is 14.8% of Cornwall businesses - 1,038 violence and sexual offences nearby - Bodmin 2 Solar Farm among local sites Get a Quote [View Bodmin on OpenStreetMap](https://www.openstreetmap.org/search?query=Bodmin%2C%20Cornwall) Bodmin Business Profile ## Cornwall's farms, builders and utilities Cornwall has 25,580 registered businesses. Construction leads on 4,020, agriculture follows closely on 3,775 and professional services on 2,700. Farming makes up 14.8% of firms, more than three times the British 4.5%. Utilities are a small group at 1.0% against 0.6%, but sites such as solar farms need critical-site guarding and remote CCTV monitoring rather than occasional checks. Officers for Bodmin work come from across our Cornwall network. They carry SIA badges, clear BS 7858 screening and draw PAYE wages, so no agency sits between you and the person on site. Every booking, planned or urgent, is tracked from GPS book-on to finish by our in-house control room, and patrol visits are written up in a digital report you can keep for insurers. 25,580 Registered businesses in Cornwall 7 Pubs, bars & nightclubs within 5 km ### Estates, retail and farms near Bodmin - **Industrial & business parks:** Cooksland Industrial Estate, Callywith Gate Industrial Estate, Carminow Road Industrial Estate, Group Travel and Lower Bodiniel Farm - **Retail parks & shopping centres:** Bodmin Retail Park, Callywith Retail Park and Ashridge Trade Park - **Hospitals:** Bodmin Hospital ### Venues & Martyn's Law Capitol Cinema and Boconnion appear on our venue map for Bodmin.

Bodmin Security FAQs ## Frequently asked questions ### Can you guard our Bodmin premises after a break-in? Yes. We can place a static officer on site while repairs are arranged, then add key holding and alarm response so future activations go to us. Police.uk counted 198 damage and arson offences close to the town last year, so boarded doors and lit yards are worth the effort. ### Do you protect farms around Bodmin? With 14.8% of Cornish firms in farming, rural work is routine for us. Patrol cars visit yards at changing hours, and install solar CCTV towers where there is no mains power, with alerts handled by our control room. ### Can you secure a solar farm or utility site? Utilities account for 1.0% of Cornish businesses, above the 0.6% national figure, and Bodmin 2 Solar Farm is one nearby example. We provide critical-site guarding, remote CCTV monitoring and patrol checks on perimeter fencing. ### What can retailers on Bodmin Retail Park do about shoplifting? The Bodmin St Marys team lists retail crime as a priority. Uniformed retail officers, store detectives and CCTV monitoring make thieves think twice and give till staff someone to call on. ### Are your officers vetted? Every officer in our network holds an SIA licence and has passed BS 7858 vetting. Pay runs through PAYE, never an agency, and a GPS book-on marks the start and end of each shift.
