none, striving to bring excellence to this field. South Africa has seen an enormous influx of foreign refugees in recent years. As a result of the poor economic climate in South Africa, these refugees then attempt to leave the country on shipping vessels, in search of better prospects abroad, creating a significant risk to shipping owners. Our teams, based in Durban, Richards Bay, Cape Town, Saldanha Bay and Port Elizabeth have many years experience in stowaway detection and have tried, tested and perfected methods of locating stowaways with the use of dogs. APEX Stowaway Detection is a Registered Security Service Provider in terms of the Private Security Industry Regulatory Authority.
