SERIS TAKES OVER DMG GROUP

As of today, the DMG Group is part of the Seris Group. DMG is not only specialised in general licensed surveillance activities but also has particular expertise in ensuring the security at events, concerts and festivals. For SERIS, it is important that it can expand its services to a domain in which this Belgian group was not yet prominently active. With all its activities, the DMG Group realises a total turnover of over 6 million €.

 “SERIS has the ambition to expand its surveillance activities and explore new challenges. So far, SERIS hasn’t been very active in the event industry. Together with our professional expertise, which we are currently using to ensure the security of, among others, SHAPE, EUROCONTROL and NATO, the acquisition of the DMG Group allows us to offer our services within the world of concerts, festivals and other events as well”, says Danny Vandormael, CEO of SERIS.

 “In today’s security climate, it is important that the event industry is supported in its security responsibilities to the maximum extent possible. Security management in such environments is a specialty and can but lead to an optimal result with a stable operational and knowledge structure. The SERIS-group will provide the necessary support to the acquired activities, which will maintain their operational autonomy and expertise", concludes Danny Vandormael.

Not only licensed surveillance services but also an important service package

Next to its surveillance activities, which will be executed within the licensed legal entity S-Protection bvba, DMG also has considerable expertise in offering shuttles, VIP transport, hostess management and a wide range of socially relevant training courses.
