History
The Harco Group, a Belgian company, was established in
Brussels in 1989, as a Trading and Distribution organization supplying raw
materials and chemicals to various industries in Europe, the Middle East and
Africa.
An expansion was done in 2003 to Asia Pacific, followed by a
second one in 2008 to Central and Latin America. In 2009, Harco Americas was
established in New York and then moved to Las Vegas.
Over the years, Harco Group diversified their business
activities into a wider range of sectors, to operate through 4 Divisions. One
of those Divisions, namely HIS, was created in 2001, mainly for distribution of
“Video Security and Surveillance” solutions and with the purpose of working on
projects in the Middle East region and selling through resellers (B to B).
In 2004, the HIS Division took a new path by working on a
different strategy, based on 3 pillars, to differentiate Harco from major
players in the industry in the MENA region.

Harco’s Differentiation Strategy (3 Pillars)
1- Focused strategy on a specific range of high-end,
non-competitive, complementary and diversified solutions within the IP CCTV
segment, rather than just getting products and putting those on the shelf along
with others.
2- Significant investment in personalized local presence.
3- Recruitment and development of technical ‘gurus’ in the
IP CCTV industry so that Harco becomes a reference in this vertical across all
the sales cycle such as site survey, system design, consultancy and pre and
post-sales support.
Today, Harco is renowned for being a focused and successful
distributor of pioneer solutions in the Video Surveillance arena in the MENA
region, while relying on a wide channel of 150+ system integrators with a
significant client base and employing people as fixed human resources providing
local support and sales in this region.

continued superior service leading to outstanding customer satisfaction and
peace of mind”.
