About us

The group was named after Allan Robert Pinkerton (1819-1884), the founding father of classic private detective work and security services, who was of Scottish origin and founder of the famous detective and security company in Chicago. He was also a famous crime writer, publishing a number of books on the topic and often enthralling the entire United States with his successes. His company was responsible, for example, for capturing Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Our Business Philosophy The motto of our company is "a different standard", which is also our proclaimed business philosophy. Our aim is to provide complex services to our partners with the highest possible quality of service. Our most important asset is the strong reputation of the company, forged during its years of operation, the safeguarding of which is more important to us than increasing profits. Since the establishment of the company our objective has been to offer high-quality professional and technological services to our ever-increasing clientele, also accommodating individual needs and thus strengthening our reliability.
