About Company
Security service is not the same for every customer; therefore, St. Moritz does not offer a generic, pre-packaged service. St. Moritz develops security programs while working closely with the customer to develop the program that most fits their individual needs. Standard Operation Procedures can then be developed and implemented so the security officers may understand the security needs for that customer.
Founded in 1982, St. Moritz Security Services, Inc. has experienced tremendous growth since its inception. St. Moritz has achieved such growth through commitment to the client and flexible management and operation of our security services. Many of St. Moritz initial customers are still our customers today which qualifies the first sentence in our mission statement "St. Moritz mission advocates customer loyalty over market share".
