Bayou Security Entrusts Legacy to Pelican

Bayou Security Systems, Inc., a life safety services and property protection provider based in Shreveport, LA, has recently joined the nation's fastest-growing alliance of independently-branded alarm companies.

Effectively immediately, Bayou Security is now a Member of The PELICAN Security Network, one of the 50 largest providers of alarm services in the U.S.

As a result, Bayou Security will now be able to:

• continue providing the level of service expected from a locally-owned-and-operated provider;
• while also offering a much wider range of innovative products and services often available only through larger regional or national companies.

"I am very pleased that, under 'The PELICAN Plan,' Bayou Security will continue to be managed as it always has in the past, as a locally-owned-and-operated company," said Rebecca H. Norton, General Manager.

"Our loyal customers will be pleased to know that our name will remain the same, we will remain in the same office on East 69th Street, we will still answer the same phone number, and our customers will continue to be served by the same licensed and highly-skilled technicians who have always served them in the past — many of whom have been with us for nearly our entire three decades in business," said Norton.

30th Anniversary / Most Trusted Company

Celebrating its 30th Anniversary (1981 - 2011) this year, Bayou Security was voted the "Number One/ Most Trusted Alarm Company" in the entire Shreveport - Bossier City area in a recent consumer survey conducted by the Shreveport Times newspaper.

Founded by the late Richard W. Norton, III, of Shreveport, Bayou Security has earned a reputation for professional excellence in the areas of security, video surveillance, access control and fire detection.

"In addition, under Mr. Norton's altruistic guidance, Bayou Security has also become known for its community and philanthropic activities. For these reasons, this is a very special undertaking on our part," said Louis J. Resweber, Founder and President of PELICAN.

"After a very rigorous and competitive selection process — involving dozens of companies from across the nation — we were extremely humbled to have been chosen for this task, and we consider it an honor to have been entrusted with perpetuating the community-oriented legacy of quality service established by the late Mr. Richard Norton at Bayou Security," said Resweber.

Rand Falbaum & John George

Moreover, this endeavor will be further bolstered by the personal commitment of Rand H. Falbaum and Dr. John F. George, Jr., primary investors in PELICAN, life-long residents of the Shreveport - Bossier City area, and active participants in the local community.

Falbaum said, "As one of the oldest, largest and most highly-respected life safety and property protection companies in the area, Bayou Security provides a 'perfect fi' for the Network, and will help to expand PELICAN's market reach in North Louisiana and throughout the entire Ark-La-Tex Region."
