Marazion is a small Cornish community 3 miles from Penzance, where the nearest industrial sites, shopping centre and venues are found. We look after local premises with patrols, key holding and alarm response.
Trusted Protection in Marazion
Marazion itself has few named commercial sites; most of what lies within 5km belongs to the Penzance side. That includes Truthwall Industrial Site, Rospeath Industrial Estate, Wharfside Shopping Centre and venues such as The Acorn and the Savoy Cinema. For a business in Marazion, the practical questions are about protecting a shop, workshop or holding when nobody is there, and about knowing who will attend if an alarm sounds overnight.
Marazion Business Profile
Cornwall's 25,580 registered businesses are led by construction at 4,020, followed closely by agriculture at 3,775 and professional services at 2,700. Farming's share of 14.8% sits far above the British 4.5%. Around Marazion that points to barns, plant and fuel stores where solar CCTV towers and patrols at irregular hours work better than a fixed guard.
Utilities make up 1.0% of Cornish firms, above the 0.6% national level, and such sites usually call for critical-site guarding and remote CCTV monitoring. Our officers carry SIA licences, are screened under BS 7858 and are paid on PAYE. A GPS check-in marks every visit, and the client receives a written digital report through our 24/7 control room.
The Acorn theatre, the Savoy Cinema and Penlee Park Open Air Theatre lie within 5km. Venues for 200 or more people will need Martyn's Law plans once it begins, and our stewards can help organisers with entry and crowd planning. What Martyn's Law means for venues.
