New York Merchants Protective Co. Continues to Climb Rankings on SDM's Top 100 Security Companies in the United States

NYMPC ranked 33rd among all U.S. security dealers.

Freeport, NY (PRWEB) May 16, 2008 -- For the second year in a row, New York Merchants Protective Co. Inc. has boosted its rankings on the SDM 100 - Security Distributing & Marketing Magazine's list of the top security dealers in the Unites States.

NYMPC ranked no. 33 this year - up four spots from no. 37 in 2007.

They represent the fact that more lives, property and personal possessions are being protected across North America by the absolute best security systems available. That's what matters to us.

"We're excited to receive yet another high ranking on the SDM 100," said Wayne Wahrsager, president of New York Merchants Protective Co. Inc. "Our continued growth is clear evidence that more families and business-owners are looking for top-notch security solutions, combined with the individualized customer service that our company is known for."

Released annually, the SDM 100 is considered the industry authority on the top security companies in the nation. The list ranks the top 100 security companies by their recurring monthly revenue (RMR) for services such as monitoring, contracted service, system maintenance, and leasing.

Experiencing substantial growth in both commercial and residential accounts, NYMPC saw a significant rise in subscribers and RMR in 2007. According to SDM magazine, the growth reflects an overall upward trend in the industry with NYMPC's growth outpacing the industry average.

"New York Merchants Protective Company is one of the few remaining privately held businesses among the top 100 security companies today," said Wahrsager. "As we continue to grow and connect with more customers, our overall mission remains the same: give people the security and peace of mind they need with the personal attention they deserve."

Offering a full suite of Fire, CCTV, Access Control and Medical Alarm Services, in addition to its traditional Security Systems, NYMPC also saw a sharp rise in its commercial accounts in 2007. The increase resulted in another high ranking in SDM on the list of the top security Companies servicing non-residential accounts.

"The key thing to remember when looking at our rankings on the SDM 100 is that those numbers don't just represent an increase in accounts for New York Merchants Protective Company," says Eric Wahrsager, vice president of marketing and development for NYMPC. "They represent the fact that more lives, property and personal possessions are being protected across North America by the absolute best security systems available. That's what matters to us."
