Trusted Protection in Port Glasgow

## Football, theatre and trade parks

Within 5km of Port Glasgow you will find Cappielow Park, the Beacon Arts Centre and Greenock Waterfront Cinema, alongside Kingston Business Park, Port Glasgow Industrial Estate and Cappielow Trade Park. Shoppers use Clydebuilt Shopping Park and the Oak Mall. That spread means match-day crowds, evening audiences and closed units after dark all sit close together. Inverclyde's leisure and hospitality sectors both run above the national share, so event stewarding and door cover are frequent needs.

Port Glasgow Business Profile

## Inverclyde's businesses and their needs

Inverclyde has 1,520 registered businesses. Professional services lead on 225, retail follows on 175 and leisure and entertainment on 165. That leisure share, 10.9% against 7.2% across Great Britain, is unusual, and it brings event security, stewarding and Martyn's Law readiness into focus. Hospitality is also strong at 10.5%, compared with 6.5% nationally, which points to door supervisors and evening cover.

Retailers at Clydebuilt Shopping Park and the Oak Mall may want uniformed officers or CCTV monitoring, and units on the trade parks need key holding and alarm response once staff leave. Any officer we place holds an SIA licence, has passed BS 7858 screening and is paid via PAYE. Each visit is booked on with GPS and logged with our 24/7 control room.

Security Requirements in Port Glasgow

## What shapes Port Glasgow

Port Glasgow is well served by rail, with Port Glasgow, Bogston, Woodhall, Cartsdyke and Whinhill stations all within 5km. Its commercial land is compact: a few business and trade parks, a shopping park and a mall. There are 15 pubs and bars and four mapped construction sites.

With a stadium and an arts centre nearby, crowds come and go on event days, while the trade parks are quiet at night. Security here usually means flexible event cover plus patrols and alarm response for units.
