Per Mar Security Services

Ownership

Per Mar Security Services is a family-owned company serving the Midwest for more than 70 years, and is led by the third generation of the Duffy family. While the Madison location was acquired as All Channel Electronics, the parent company remains independent family ownership rather than corporate chain or PE-backed.

Local Sourcing

No specific information available about local vs. national sourcing practices for security equipment, parts, or supplies. The company emphasizes technology and equipment but does not disclose sourcing details.

Community Involvement

Per Mar believes in giving back to the communities it serves by actively volunteering and giving monetary support to local organizations through its Charity Fund, with employees contributing and the company matching dollar for dollar. The company emphasizes employing team members who live and work in the communities they serve.

Local Workforce

Per Mar Security Services has received glowing reviews from customers praising the professionalism, knowledge, and dedication of their technicians. However, employee eNPS is -20 as rated by 51 employees, and some employees report lack of recognition, wage/culture issues, and supervisory problems.

Revenue Retention

No specific financial data available about what percentage of revenue stays local versus flows to headquarters in Davenport, Iowa. The company operates 27 branch locations serving 18 states, suggesting multi-state operations that likely extract profits beyond Madison.

Local Presence

Strong local signals include family-owned claim, 70+ year Midwest history, specific Madison/Dane County references, local phone number (608), and community-focused language. However, corporate signals emerge from 'Locations' page link, broad service menu structure, careers portal reference, and generic template-style layout that suggests multi-location operation rather than single-location focus.
