Protecting the High Street

Unity Secure provides professional retail security guards trained with a keen eye for detail and kept in the loop with current ongoing issues in the areas they cover. Shoplifting, anti-social behaviour and organised retail crime are daily challenges — we're here to help you tackle them effectively.

Our guards don't just stand at a door. They actively engage with the retail environment, building awareness of regular offenders, working with neighbouring businesses and staying current on area-wide incidents.

What's Included

  • SIA-licensed retail security officers
  • Shoplifting deterrence and prevention
  • Floor walking and in-store patrols
  • DISC integration — real-time area crime alerts and intelligence sharing
  • Customer assistance and a welcoming presence
  • Detainment of suspected shoplifters (within legal guidelines)
  • Liaison with local police and other security teams
  • CCTV monitoring support
  • Incident reporting and evidence documentation
  • Staff safety during opening, closing and cash handling

DISC — Smarter Intelligence

Our guards use DISC (Digital Intelligence & Sharing Community) — a platform that connects security teams across the local area, sharing real-time alerts about known offenders, current incidents and crime trends in your area.

This means our guards arrive already aware of who has been causing problems locally, what methods are being used and what to watch out for. It's teamwork at a community level — and it makes a real difference.

Types of Retail We Cover

  • Independent shops and boutiques
  • Supermarkets and convenience stores
  • Shopping centres and retail parks
  • Pharmacies and off-licences
  • High street chains and flagship stores
  • Markets and pop-up retail events

Flexible Contracts

Whether you need a guard five days a week or just on weekends when footfall is highest, we work around your trading hours. We also offer short-term cover for busy seasonal periods like Christmas, summer sales and promotional events.

Working as a Team

Unity Secure believes that fighting retail crime requires collaboration. Our guards communicate with your staff, neighbouring businesses and local police — because teamwork is the only way to make a lasting difference.
