AFIMAC

History and Background

AFIMAC Global was founded in 1982 and has evolved from a strike-security provider into a comprehensive business continuity partner. The company began by offering specialized security and temporary labor during labor disputes, and over four decades expanded its services to include executive protection, disaster relief, and corporate investigations. Its long operational history has built a reputation for reliability in crisis situations, with a track record of 100% client operational continuity during disruptions.

Business Model and Revenue

AFIMAC operates on a service-based model, charging clients for the deployment of its workforce and security personnel. The company does not disclose revenue figures, but its acquisition by New State Capital in 2022 for an undisclosed sum suggests significant scale and growth potential. The business relies on a lean corporate team of 51-200 employees, supported by a vast network of over 20,000 pre-vetted travel laborers who are deployed on a contingent basis. This model allows AFIMAC to scale rapidly while keeping fixed costs low.

Core Services and Products

AFIMAC offers five primary service lines. Critical Situation Travel Labor provides on-demand temporary workers within 72 hours to fill staffing gaps in manufacturing, logistics, and warehousing. Labor Dispute Security + Support deploys trained security personnel to maintain safety during strikes, lockouts, or union organizing drives. Global Protective Services delivers executive and close protection for at-risk personnel, adapting to threat levels. Disaster Relief + Emergency Aid supplies personnel, temporary housing, food service, and mobile medical care after natural disasters. Corporate Investigations protects businesses from internal and external criminal activity such as theft, fraud, and sabotage.

Market Position and Competitors

AFIMAC operates in a niche market for business continuity and risk mitigation, competing with firms like GardaWorld, Allied Universal, and specialized labor providers. Its key differentiator is speed of deployment – the company claims to mobilize faster than any competitor – and its ability to handle both workforce shortages and security threats simultaneously. The company serves clients across government, manufacturing, logistics, and other sectors, primarily in the United States and Canada with some international reach.

Recent Developments and Leadership

In August 2022, New State Capital acquired AFIMAC Global, a move expected to accelerate growth through investment in technology and expanded service lines. Following the acquisition, Joe Schollaert was named President and CEO, but he has since been succeeded by Cindy Nash, who now serves as CEO. The current leadership also includes David Brainard as CFO, Robert Shuster as COO, and Ruben E. Mena as LATAM/South America outside consultant. The company continues to adapt to modern workforce volatility, geopolitical uncertainty, and shifting regulatory landscapes.
