About APSAA
APSAA came into being in 1992, when a few private security companies joined hands to form a common platform, with a view to look after the welfare of their employees, create awareness among masses about the importance of security and safe guard the business interest through effective lobbying with all levels of government functionaries. Today, we are proud to say that ASPAA has gained an elevated status and is one of the major Associations in Pakistan. Our members enjoy honour, respect and dignity not only among business community but also within the corridors of power. APSAA is the only recognized body representing Private Security Agencies in Pakistan, We are registered with Security Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) since February 8th, 2001 and are an 'A' class member of Federation of Pakistan Chamber Of Commerce and Industries (FPCCI).
