- Radcom Security Services (June 2004)

In March 2010, TDR Capital, a UK-based private equity firm bought a controlling stake in the VPS Group. Supporting this change, a new management team reviewed and evaluated the Group’s activities in each of its operating countries to ensure world-class vacant property services around the globe.
Today, the VPS Group’s headquarters is in the UK, while serving operations across Europe and the USA.
