Nexus has been acquired by VPS Group

The private shareholders of Nexus National Security Network (Nexus) have sold the company to VPS Group.

Nexus is a leading security services provider. It helps its customers located in the UK and Europe to keep their business premises and other assets safe by providing them with a range of services through its network of recognized security providers. Services provided include mobile patrols of buildings, keyholding and alarm response, void property inspections, locking/unlocking of premises, accompanied site visits and other short-term emergency requirements.

VPS Group is a leading European specialist in the protection of people, property and assets on a temporary or emergency basis. It also offers a wide range of property services for occupied property from locks and glazing to grounds services and remote site security.

Oaklins Evelyn Partners, a specialist advisor to the technology and business support service sectors, based in the UK, worked with the owners of Nexus to conduct an international search to find a new partner to help grow and expand their global reach.

Parties
“The Oaklins team were a pleasure to work with, helping us to build the story about the company and being available round the clock. Their international reach meant we had access to a pool of buyers, many of which we did not know. This, combined with their problem-solving ability and calmness, meant we navigated our way safely through the process. We have completed with a buyer who we believe understands both the business and its culture and we are very excited for Nexus’ future. We would definitely work with the Oaklins team again.”
