Introduction

KIBO Security Group, a Danish full-service security specialist, has been sold to Garda Sikring / EMK Capital. KIBO focuses on customers where security is business critical and has established a leading position in the market for high-end security solutions. It supplies some of Denmark’s most demanding customers in terms of security solutions e.g., the Danish Armed Forces, the Danish Police, correctional facilities as well as key Danish infrastructure.

Oaklins’ team in Denmark was engaged as strategic and financial advisor by the owners of KIBO Security Group, comprising management and Executive Capital, a Danish private investment firm.

With Oaklins’ help, we have found the best possible new owner for the company. I’m certain it will be an exciting journey together with Garda Sikring and EMK Capital. LARS KRAMER, CEO & CO-OWNER – KIBO SECURITY GROUP
