Revenue of AlliedUniversal worldwide 2015-2023

In 2023, Allied Universal generated approximately 20.6 billion U.S. dollars in revenue. In August 2016, the merger of AlliedBarton Security Services and Universal Services of America finalized, creating the North American leader in security services, Allied Universal. In April 2021, Allied Universal acquired G4S, making them the largest security services firm in the world, hence the significant increase in revenue between 2020 and 2021.Global dominanceSince its merger with G4S in 2021, Allied Universal has been far and away the leading provider of security services in the world in terms of number of employees and annual revenue. In 2023, Allied Universal made 8.5 billion U.S. dollars more in revenue than its closest competitor - Securitas - in the United States. Just before the merger, G4S recorded a revenue of almost 376 million British pounds in the United Kingdom, with Allied Universal having not yet had a foot in the British security services market at this point.A growing industryAs the security services industry has continued to grow, so too has its market size and workforce. In 2023, the industry with the highest level of employment of security guards in the United States was investigation and security services, with roughly 735,000 employed. In comparison, the estimated number of security guards in the United Kingdom was 148,200 in the first quarter of 2024, a decrease when compared to the previous year. Furthermore, the market size of the outsourced contract security industry in the United States has grown exponentially since 2014. Patterns would therefore suggest that the security services industry will continue on an upward trajectory.

于2023年，联合安全公司（Allied Universal）创造了约206亿美元的营业收入。2016年8月，联合保安服务公司（AlliedBarton Security Services）与美国通用服务公司（Universal Services of America）的合并正式完成，从而缔造了北美安全服务领域的领军企业——联合安全公司。2021年4月，联合安全公司收购了G4S，使其成为全球最大的安全服务公司，因此在2020年至2021年期间营业收入实现了显著增长。自2021年与G4S合并以来，联合安全公司在全球范围内已成为员工数量和年度营业收入方面的领先提供商。2023年，联合安全公司的营业收入比其在美国最接近的竞争对手——赛科瑞塔斯（Securitas）——高出85亿美元。在合并之前，G4S在英国的营业收入约为3.76亿英镑，而此时联合安全公司尚未涉足英国安全服务市场。随着安全服务行业的持续增长，其市场规模和劳动力也在不断扩大。2023年，美国雇佣保安人员数量最多的行业为调查与安全服务，约有73.5万人从业。相比之下，2024年第一季度英国保安人员的估计数量为14.82万人，较上一年有所下降。此外，自2014年以来，美国外包合同安全服务行业的市场规模呈指数级增长。因此，安全服务行业预计将继续保持上升态势。
