Mantra Reflects on 11 Years of Continued Success
As we celebrate our 11th Anniversary, we can look back on another incredible year as a leading security company in Nigeria. Building on the success of our 10th Anniversary, the past year has brought stronger partnerships, innovative security solutions and continued growth for Mantra.
Central to our growing reputation as an expert provider of security services in Nigeria has been our work with both the UK Government Department for Business and Trade and the Nigerian-Business Chamber of Commerce.
Supporting International Businesses Operating in Nigeria
By working closely with our sister company in the UK, Mantra Operations Solutions Limited, our unique approach enables us to provide specialist security intelligence and practical advice tailored to each itinerary for British and international companies considering trading in or with Nigeria. This proactive service helps visitors travel with greater confidence while ensuring they are fully prepared before arriving in Nigeria.
As a result, an increasing number of organisations from the UK, South Africa, France and other European countries now rely on us for security support in Nigeria, during their international Trade Missions, business meetings and networking events.
Our Airport Meet and Greet and Fast Track services at Nigeria's major international airports, including Lagos and Abuja, help travellers move quickly and safely through immigration and airport protocols.
Our Armed Escort Services, delivered by highly trained government security force personnel provide secure transportation for international delegates and corporate visitors travelling throughout Nigeria.
Strengthening Strategic Partnerships
This year, we have continued to strengthen our relationships with industry partners and the wider business community in Nigeria. We proudly sponsored the Nigerian-British Chamber of Commerce Maritime & Logistics Conference (a key sector for Nigeria’s economy) and attended the inaugural Economic Outlook event in London.
Launch of the Mantra Security Training Academy
A major milestone during our 11th year has been the successful launch of the Mantra Security Training Academy.
The Academy has been established to help organisations strengthen their security capability through professional training delivered by experienced security specialists.
We have recently led a series of training courses for a major corporate Client in Nigeria, covering a wide range of security disciplines relevant to their operational requirements. Feedback from participants has been extremely positive.
Our Training Courses are available in a variety of key security areas, including:
Security Management Systems Training
Close Protection and Executive Protection Training
Security Operatives Training
Defensive Driving Training
First Aid Training
We are equally committed to investing in our own people. We keep our Clients safe by ensuring that our own Mantra personnel regularly undertake refresher training to ensure adherence to local laws, strengthen operational capability and ensure the highest professional standards.
Why our Clients Trust Mantra
Our unique combination of Global Experience and Local Expertise sets us apart within Nigeria's private security sector.
Our Security Advisories are a clear example of how we use these particular skills to keep our Clients safe. By analysing incident data, we use our extensive security knowledge and experience to provide practical advice and recommendations that help organisations protect their people, assets and operations.
Alongside our extensive licences, permits and industry accreditations, we were proud to achieve three internationally recognised ISO certifications during the past year:
ISO 9001 - Quality Management System
ISO 45001 - Occupational Health and Safety Management System
ISO 18788 - Management System for Private Security Operations
These ISO certifications reflect our ongoing commitment to operational excellence, quality assurance, security governance and international best practices within the private security industry in Nigeria.
