Retail and Business Districts in Nanjing

Security programs in Nanjing usually cover the following shopping and business areas:

• Xinjiekou shopping district
• Deji Plaza
• Golden Eagle International Shopping Center
• Hexi Central Business District
• Confucius Temple and Qinhuai River scenic belt
• Jiangbei New Area

Security Considerations in Nanjing

Xinjiekou is Nanjing’s busiest shopping district, with metro interchange stations connected underground to several malls, many entrances and complex pedestrian routes. Luxury stores need to place posts sensibly between the entrance reception, fitting areas and stockrooms, and add staff for new product launches and sales seasons. Officers need to know the connections between the underground passages and the malls, and set up fixed lines of contact with each mall’s security center.

Office buildings in the Hexi Central Business District and Jiangbei New Area house mainly corporate headquarters, financial institutions and technology companies, and front desk security focuses on visitor registration, access control and meeting reception. Both areas are a long way from Xinjiekou, and travel between Jiangbei New Area and the main urban area requires a Yangtze River tunnel or bridge, so cross-district deployment needs extra travel time. Foreign company visitors are common, so front desk staff with basic English are helpful.

The Qinhuai Lantern Festival during the Spring Festival, the Confucius Temple scenic area and the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum receive large numbers of visitors on holidays, and foot traffic in the related shopping districts rises markedly. The plum rain season from June to July and the summer heat place demands on equipment and rotation at outdoor posts.

Common Questions

In Nanjing, Can Lobby Security in Office Buildings Also Handle Visitor Registration and Meeting Room Reception?

Visitor registration, ID checks and meeting reception can be listed in the Post Orders as duties of the lobby post. The specific scope of work needs to be set in line with the building property’s access control system and management rules, and is confirmed with the owner or property manager at the proposal stage.

How Is Security Guard Coverage Priced?

Rates depend on the officer classification, hours, schedule and site requirements. McCray provides a written rate schedule after reviewing the needs of each site. Holiday, overnight and short-notice coverage is billed at a premium rate.
