Mexico City is a vast, vibrant capital of business and culture, and a city where a real crime and kidnap environment makes planning essential. The work here centres on secure transport, residential security and protection scaled to the threat.
Our operatives understand how Mexico City moves, where its wealth gathers in Polanco and Lomas de Chapultepec, and where exposure and risk concentrate.
The local picture
A few local realities shape every plan we build in Mexico City:
- Secure transport. With a real environment of vehicle-targeted and express-kidnap risk, protected driving and route planning are central.
- Residential and estate security. Homes in Polanco, Lomas de Chapultepec and Las Lomas need managed access, staff and robust perimeters.
- Higher crime environment. Unlike most European cities, the capital carries a real crime risk, so protection is scaled to it.
- Movement and congestion. A vast, congested city makes transfers and routing a matter of careful planning.
Working within the local rules
Private security in Mexico is licensed and supervised by the authorities, and licensed close protection, including armed protection and armoured vehicles where lawful and appropriate, operates within it. We advise on the right posture for the environment and the engagement.
Arrivals, venues and the places that matter
Most principals arrive through Mexico City International or Toluca, with private aviation. We handle protected meet-and-greet and secure transfer to the residence or hotel end to end.
