Photo Release -- Medical Marijuana Inc. & Wellness Managed Services' MPSI Wins Major Security Contract
April 22 2014 - 9:00AM
Medical Marijuana Inc. (OTC Pink:MJNA) is pleased to announce that
its subsidiary, Wellness Managed Services' new company, MPS
International (MPSI) has been awarded a large annual physical
security contract with the Denver Mart. The Denver Mart is the
Rocky Mountain region's premier wholesale marketplace and was
established in 1965. The venue is the hub for thousands of domestic
and international events throughout the year and is the region's
largest exposition, trade show and conference meeting facility,
with approximately 400,000 sq. ft. of commercial space.
The Denver Mart selected MPSI from a field of several
security agencies. "It's always nice to work with a company that
has the same core values and discipline, not to mention we share
the same kind of customer service mindset," said Ken Williams,
Director, Event Sales and Operations for the Denver Mart. "We
decided on MPS International because the company stayed on top of
the bidding process, and showed a sincere interest in winning the
business. It's easy for us when we can guarantee security across
all points of coverage."
"At the end of the day, the Denver Mart contract with MPS
International is worth approximately $250,000.
"As a result of the contract, MPS International will get 75% of
the security contracts through our recommendations for additional
events, too," concluded Williams. MSPI most recently provided
security services for The Denver Mart for multiple cannabis
industry events throughout the historic "420 weekend." Investors
should be aware that this business model supports state-level legal
cannabis industry events. These types of events will increase in
number and frequency in additional markets as cannabis legalization
continues to proliferate across the United States. MPSI is led by
security industry veterans with over four decades of security
experience. MPSI's services include physical security, security
surveillance and secure transport by armored vehicle. Contracted
security services for the Denver Merchandise Mart include:
- Patrol the venue and outside property
- Active presence inside the venue and parking lot
- Enforcing venue rules and guidelines
- Door and access control checks
- Threat prevention and team communication
- Venue staff security escort
- Trespassing ordinance enforcement
