Founded in 2019 by a father-and-son duo, Watson Express ILC is a 100% Black-owned protective agency based in Minneapolis, MN.

Our experience spans conventions, hospitality, residential properties, and on-call support. At Watson Express, we’re proud to be a community partner committed to safety, trust, and progress.
WHO WE ARE
OUR STORY
​Watson Express Security was created to meet a clear need in the industry: professional, well-trained officers backed by ongoing training and strong ethical standards. Since 2019, we’ve grown steadily—expanding our team, developing specialized training for other security companies, and providing services to colleges, hotels, and events.
Guided by integrity, professionalism, safety, continuous improvement, and community commitment, our mission is to deliver reliable security solutions while strengthening communities and preparing the next generation of security leaders.
We deliver dependable, highly trained security professionals who protect people, property, and events with integrity and professionalism. Every officer undergoes extensive pre-assignment and advanced training, ensuring they are prepared for any situation. Our approach is client-focused and personalized—we design security plans specific to each client’s needs rather than using one-size-fits-all solutions. Beyond protecting our clients, we invest in our team’s growth and development, creating career pathways while maintaining the highest standards of safety, ethics, and professionalism.
