Bottesford Business Profile
North Lincolnshire has 5,760 registered businesses. Construction is the largest group with 800, then transport and logistics with 595 and professional services with 590. That logistics figure equals 10.3% of firms, more than double the British 4.3%, so yard guarding, gatehouse control and warehouse patrols are a big part of the local picture. The motor trade, at 5.6% against 3.0%, adds forecourts that need CCTV towers and overnight patrols.
No team of ours lives in Bottesford itself, so officers are booked from across the network to suit each event or contract. All are SIA-licensed, have passed BS 7858 checks and are on PAYE. Four building sites appear on the map within 5km, and every patrol visit, whether to a building site or a venue car park, is logged by GPS and written up digitally.
Where The Plowright Theatre, The Baths Hall or Glanford Park admit 200 people or more, Martyn's Law duties will follow once it takes effect in 2027. We help venue managers set up search routines, stewarding plans and evacuation procedures. What Martyn's Law means for venues.
