SAKOM know Africa is a developing continent with each country requiring a different security solution to ultimately different security challenges. From fierce fighting in The North East of Africa (Libya) to holiday destinations in Kenya (Lamu) SAKOM are deployed in a variety of different profiles providing bespoke security solutions to changing and unique environments. Together with our partners we have successfully deployed assets and personnel for close protection of foreign nationals working in the more austere areas of Africa.

SAKOM has provided journey management solutions for foreign nationals concerned with the threat of kidnapping or the threat of theft to personal or company property. We have repeatedly provided low profile solutions to NGO clients that have had concerns for their safety and do not want to raise their profile.

Africa is one of SAKOM’s key strengths and the ability to access an emerging country or respond to an emerging crisis with a solution that meets the clients need whilst fulfilling the host country’s legal and compliance standards, is critical. As a poorer continent Africa has been host to some of the worst natural disasters brought about by weather, starvation, disease and terrorism. With a population explosion, basic daily requirements are consistently not being met forcing desperate people to do desperate things. SAKOM is there with our clients not only to provide solutions to these problems in terms of aid (food, fuel, medicine, shelter) but we are there when times are desperate and threats increase, requiring more detailed and complex security solutions.
