VALUE PROPOSITION Fidelity Security Group is southern Africa’s largest integrated security solutions provider and the industry leader in protection innovation. Excellence in service delivery and implementation are fundamental to their impressive track record. By keeping abreast of the latest trends and technological developments globally, the Group is continuously evolving whilst remaining a frontrunner in the security solutions market. With 57 years of experience, the company’s strength lies in exceptional leadership, an unwavering commitment to excellent corporate governance, a comprehensive infrastructure and an aggressively proactive approach to staying at the forefront of the security field. The Fidelity Group’s strategic and highly successful transformation through BEE initiatives has made it South Africa’s largest black economically-owned Integrated Security Solution Provider. The Fidelity Training Colleges pioneered training in South Africa and played a vital role in professionalising this sector by developing the first learnership programme for security officers with SASSETA (NQF Level 3). The Group’s Cash Solutions business continues to grow and has quickly become a serious competitor in the market, garnering a large number of high-profile national contracts and bringing state-of-the-art technology backed by Fidelity’s hands on approach to the market.
