AK Security and Logistics Company (SL) Ltd was founded on March 5, 2014, by Foday Jawara, who is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer. Returning from the United States of America with a vision to invest in his home country and provide employment opportunities for young people, Jawara made the bold decision to enter the highly competitive private security sector. Despite numerous challenges and barriers to entry posed by the dominance of foreign security firms, Jawara, driven by his passion for youth empowerment, embarked on the journey to compete with industry giants.

Initially, AK Security faced significant hurdles, but through the persistent efforts of Jawara and the management team, the company steadily improved its services. Since its inception, AK Security has experienced remarkable growth, expanding from fewer than 50 security guards in 2014 to a workforce of over 1,000 guards by 2024. The company has secured major contracts with prominent entities in mining, banking, and various governmental and non-governmental organizations across all sixty districts of Sierra Leone.

Today, AK Security is renowned for its superior security services, having successfully navigated the once challenging and competitive market to emerge as one of the top private security companies in the sector. It has become a household name in Sierra Leone, recognized as the only truly indigenous company among the leading security firms in the country.

In line with the evolving landscape of the 21st century and the fourth industrial revolution, AK Security has diversified its portfolio to offer a range of services. In addition to providing security guards for property protection, the company now offers advanced solutions such as software systems infrastructure, technology expertise, CCTV installation, app development, and risk assessment consulting. This evolution underscores AK Security’s adaptability and commitment to staying abreast of technological advancements while meeting the changing needs of its clientele
