Units on Ventnor Industrial Estate and Wroxall Industrial Estate hold stock, vans and equipment that sit unattended overnight, which is where patrols at varied hours and monitored alarms help. Beyond the estates, the town's arts spaces, Ventnor Arts Club and Ventnor Exchange among them, and about 22 pubs and bars give Ventnor an evening trade that sometimes calls for door cover. - Ventnor and Wroxall industrial estates nearby - Hospitality at 12.0% of island businesses - Shoplifting down 65% on a year earlier - Police priorities include retail crime Get a Quote [View Ventnor on OpenStreetMap](https://www.openstreetmap.org/search?query=Ventnor%2C%20Isle%20of%20Wight) Ventnor Business Profile ## Island businesses and the cover they need The Isle of Wight has 4,720 registered businesses. Construction leads with 680, hospitality follows with 565 and professional services with 545. Hospitality's share of 12.0% is close to double the 6.5% national figure, and manufacturing, at 7.2% against 4.6%, is also strong. Production units need static guarding, controlled access and alarm response, while hotels and bars look for door supervision and evening patrols. Our island cover is arranged per contract, with officers drawn from the wider network. All are SIA-licensed, BS 7858 vetted and paid through PAYE. Every patrol and alarm visit is booked on by GPS and overseen by our 24/7 control room, so a business owner on the estate or in town receives a clear digital report of what was checked and when. 4,720 Registered businesses in Isle of Wight 5 Active construction sites mapped within 5 km 22 Pubs, bars & nightclubs within 5 km ### Named sites around Ventnor - **Industrial & business parks:** Ventnor Industrial Estate and Wroxall Industrial Estate - **Rail stations:** Shanklin ### Venues & Martyn's Law Ventnor Exchange, Ventnor Arts Club and Shanklin Theatre are the main named venues nearby.

Security Requirements in Ventnor ## A small town with an evening trade Ventnor's map is short on retail parks and long on character venues: two arts spaces in town, a theatre at Shanklin and around 22 pubs and bars within 5km. The nearest station is at Shanklin, and five construction sites are mapped in the same radius. That shapes security needs. Estate units need overnight checks, building plots need cameras, and pubs and arts venues need staff who can manage a crowd on a busy night.
