Private security sector booms in Turkey


Private security continues to grow at a rapid pace in Turkey, as the number of Turkish private security guards has surpassed the number of soldiers in 134 countries.

The number of private security guards has reached 169,000, according to recent data. This figure compares with military populations of 163,000 in Poland, 148,000 in the Ukraine, 127,000 in Algeria and 120,000 in Switzerland. Nearly 47,000 companies have received permission to employ security guards.

The country has more than 415,000 people licensed to work as security guards.

Since 2004, when the regulation on private security came into effect, 1,270 companies have received licenses to operate as private security providers, according to Bülent Perut, chief of the All Private Security Associations Federation, or TÖGF.

“More than 700 institutions are training private security officers,” Perut said. “Until today, 46,688 institutions have received permission to employ security guards. Since 2004, more than a million people entered exams to become guards. Nearly 687,000 of them got their certificates. Out of this latter figure, 415,487 individuals received private security IDs.”

Turkey is ahead of many European countries and even the U.S. in private security, according to Perut. “We are shouldering an important load from the shoulders of the state,” he said. “We employ people that seek jobs, waiting in desolate corners of teahouses and turn them into people who fight crime. Maybe the man was going to be a thief, involved in crime, but suddenly he becomes one who fights against crime.”

According to the proposed changes, the responsibility for dams and bridges might also be transferred to private security. Perut said he has requested that private security guards’ authority should be enlarged especially during sports matches.

“Foreign capital is [busy] buying out private security firms,” Perut told the Anatolia news agency. “Two or three of the top five or six private security firms have been acquired by foreign companies.”

Turkey: Safety and Security Market Brief 2010

 Market Overview
The total market for safety and security equipment and services in Turkey is estimated to be $3.63 billion in 2009. Physical security services, meaning private security guards, patrols, and security training services captured around $3 billion of the total market, electronic security methods $450 million, and cash in transfer services (C.I.T., cash and valuables) $180 million. As these figures indicate, the safety and security sector in Turkey is heavily weighted towards physical security services, due to the advantages of comparatively lower labor costs in Turkey. It can be expected that as the Turkish economy advances further, a shift towards electronic security systems will take place.
This market brief focuses on the electronic security systems market segment in Turkey, 80 percent of which consists of imports.
In 2010, the electronic security systems market in Turkey is expected to grow around 15%, reaching 515 million dollars. Major suppliers to the Turkish market are from the U.S., Germany, the UK, Israel, Japan, Taiwan, China, South Korea, Italy and Canada.
In the less sophisticated security products sector, Turkey offers 100 percent local production of equipment like protective apparel, locks and lock subassemblies, steel doors, laminated safety glass, portable fire extinguishers, safes, safety vaults, alarms and security panels. In the case of more advanced production, primarily imported components are used.
Best Products/Services
All around the world, including Turkey, the U.S. electronic security products have set the standard, as most of the industry R&D and technological innovations are realized in the U.S.
Best prospects for U.S. companies include:
•Closed circuit television systems
•IP based surveillance systems
•Fiber optic cable or linear cable fire detection systems
•Biometrics applications
•Microwave detectors
•Anti-aggression and anti-hold-up devices
•Anti-shoplifting equipment
•Systems for automation of homes and buildings
•Remote positioning devices
•X-ray machines
•Forensics equipment
An important market trend in Turkey is the demand for integrated security solutions marketed by independent security consultants. These integrated solutions cover on-site and immediate response personnel, electronic security and alarm systems, and fire-related security all in one package. U.S. companies can find opportunities in the turnkey design of integrated security projects.
