About Us

Why We Do What We Do

In German-speaking regions, the security sector frequently struggles with a shortage of professional expertise, thereby compromising the safety of all parties involved. FOXPEDITION was founded to change this. Our guiding principle is the protection of people, grounded in operational experience, realistic planning, and expert knowledge. Absolute security may never be achievable, but we strive to get as close as possible.

How We Work

We identify risks and translate them into clear, actionable decisions. Our work combines years of operational experience with analytical and academic thinking. We plan realistically, execute professionally and discreetly, and never make false promises. Discretion, honesty, trust, and professional excellence are at the heart of everything we do. This approach brings clarity to complex situations and ensures security when it matters most.

What We Deliver

We enable organizations, projects, and individuals to operate safely, even under demanding conditions. Our clients value our solution-oriented approach, transparent communication, and professional discretion. Our measure of success is simple: a project completed without incidents, with everyone returning home safely.
