Yet again the time of year has come where we all step back and ponder how it has gone by so quickly, however it is when we reflect on what has been accomplished during this year that we can truly appreciate our achievements.
For Red Badge Group, 2019 has been a year of change and growth. After the tragic events that occurred in Christchurch on March 15th it was clear that the security industry standards were going to change significantly. This was the opportunity for Red Badge to demonstrate the hard work put into training and initiatives occurring behind the scenes and implement these changes nationally to ensure all of our teams were operating at the level that was required off the back of this significant event.
Some of the many notable mentions from 2019 include the expansion of Red Badge Group into Invercargill, adding yet another city to the list of locations we operate from. One of the main standouts for the company was the opening of the billion dollar Westfield in Newmarket, this was a long-term project and Red Badge are thrilled with the hard work of our staff throughout the entire process. Another major milestone for Red Badge Group was the partnership with AMP Capital, to instate living wage for staff throughout their shopping centres New Zealand wide.
We couldn’t finish off the year without reliving the excitement surrounding the two awards Red Badge Group won. It is with great honour that Red Badge Group were named the Best Industry Supplier at the 2019 Entertainment Venues Association of New Zealand Awards, as well as Peter Fillet being awarded with Security Trainer of the Year at the 2019 New Zealand Security Association Awards, for the second year in a row
These achievements are a reflection of the hard work put in by our management team and staff nationwide. Red Badge Group is built up by our people, so we would like to thank every one of our staff for enabling us to conclude another successful year as industry leaders.
It is not without every one of our clients, customers and partners that we are able to facilitate this continued growth and success, so from our team to yours – thanks for a great year!
We wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
