MOST SECURITY COMPANIES SEND WHOEVER'S AVAILABLE.
WE SEND WHOEVER'S RIGHT.
Des Peres is built around one of West County’s biggest retail draws. West County Center alone draws in over 150 stores’ worth of shoppers, diners, and employees every day, anchored by Macy’s, Nordstrom, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and JCPenney, at one of the busiest retail intersections in West County. That kind of volume creates real exposure: theft, parking lot incidents, and after-hours risk that a generic rent-a-guard rotation isn’t built to handle.
National firms staff high-traffic retail accounts like this with whoever’s available that day. GCI builds career-driven security officers who stay on your property, know the layout, and take ownership of it like it’s their own.
