Local security company acquires Louisville firm

A Kettering-based security services provider is expanding its Midwest market reach with the acquisition of a Louisville firm, company officials announced Monday.

Midwest Security Services has acquired AVC Security in Louisville, nearly doubling the former company’s size, officials said. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Officials said the two organizations will continue to operate under their respective business names, and AVC’s current staff will remain in place. Midwest Security Services will maintain its corporate office location at 4050 Benfield Drive, Kettering.

Midwest Security Services was founded in 2008 as a subsidiary of Midwest Design Computers. In 2012, Midwest Security Services became an independently owned and operated company.
