There is no shortage of security companies in Zimbabwe. There is a shortage of ones with the ownership, the personnel, and the track record to run a serious operation for a multinational.
West Group Security Services has operated in Zimbabwe since 2013. Omega Risk Solutions holds shares and management control in the business — this is not a licensing arrangement or a referral partnership. Harare headquarters. Over 600 personnel deployed. A presidential recognition award in 2023.
That is what Zimbabwe security looks like when it is built, not borrowed.
West Group Security Services in Zimbabwe
Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Harare, West Group Security Services runs manned guarding, K9 patrol units, VIP protection, armed escort, and aviation security operations across Zimbabwe. Over 600 personnel are deployed across the country’s construction, religious facilities, retail, and logistics sectors.
In 2023, West Group Security Services received a presidential recognition award — Best First Commercial Exhibit — recognition earned in the same market it operates guards in every day, not a marketing claim invented for a website.
Services
Manned guarding. Deployed across construction sites, retail premises, logistics operations, and religious facilities nationwide. Deployment — armed or unarmed — is determined by a site-specific threat assessment, not a fixed default.
K9 patrol units. Trained canine units for perimeter security and patrol operations, supporting sites where a physical deterrent and detection capability are both required.
VIP protection and armed escort. Close protection and armed escort services for executives, site visits, and high-value movements — a core, explicitly-offered part of the West Group service line, not an add-on.
Aviation security. West Group Security Services provides aviation security services at Harare International Airport — a level of clearance and operational history that most security providers in the market do not carry.
West Group does not offer mining security in Zimbabwe. If your requirement is mine-site security, we will tell you that directly rather than take the contract and figure it out afterward.
Who West Group Serves
Construction companies, religious institutions, retail operators, and logistics businesses operating in Zimbabwe — organisations that need a security provider with a real Harare office, real management accountability, and a personnel base large enough to actually staff the contract they’re signing, not just the sales pitch.
Backed by the Group
West Group Security Services operates under Omega Risk Solutions’ shares and management control. ORS has operated across multiple African countries since 2003, currently focused on the SADEC region, West and Central Africa. Where specialist capability or local law requires it — polygraph, forensic, demining, or certain technology installations — ORS manages and supervises specialist partners rather than improvising in-house. That same standard of accountability governs West Group’s Zimbabwe operation.
