Victor brings more than 30 years of diversified business experience. He has spent the last 26 years in the security alarm industry, first co-owning Alliance Security Inc., a franchised alarm dealer network based in Ontario.

Using the services of Harding Security to sell my business not only got me a great deal but also made the whole process faster, smoother and a lot less work for me! Victor's experience and personal efforts made a significant contribution to securing and closing our deal successfully. The fees for Harding Security Services are more than worth the investment

"Now that our deal has been completed and I have had some time to digest and reflect as to what has transpired over the last 6 months, I seriously want to thank you for being my team. I truly believe the smartest decision I made was to contact you both as a salesman and more importantly as a consultant for this process. Your vast knowledge of the Security Industry in our country, your extensive connections to the major players in North America and your ability to quickly ascertain my needs and that of my company Scott Security Systems Ltd. are the major reason this Partnership with SecureTek happened."
