The shelves of Hogan Guards again have a new addition as the organisation was recently named Africa’s Most Trusted Risk Management Solutions Company of the decade.
The leading Nigerian security firm was bestowed with this coveted honour at the African Quality Achievement Awards (AQAA) 2022 at Sheraton Hotel in Lagos.
The organisers of the event, Africa Quality Congress, explained that Hogan Guards met all the stringent requirements for the award.
It was gathered that the company was chosen for recognition by a research committee comprising international quality professionals from across Africa, including South Africa, Uganda, Ghana, Liberia and Nigeria.
Recipients of AQAA are recognised based on criteria which include the ability to apply innovation and quality culture in business practices.
The CEO of Hogan Guards, Mr Paul Ibirogba, while accepting the award on behalf of the organisation, stated that, “We are truly honoured to be recognised as a continental leader in our industry. This award would not be possible without the thousands of committed workers in our organisation.”
He went on to further credit the company’s personnel, particularly noting various incidents which include terrorism, armed robbery, and fire outbreaks that Hogan Guards security prevented in the past, thereby saving clients trillions over the past nearly half-century.
AQAA has previously been held in various African countries such as South Africa and Egypt. The 2022 edition held in Lagos brought together key decision-makers, experts and other relevant stakeholders across the African continent to discuss and exchange ideas on the importance of quality assurance to the economic growth of people, companies and countries.
