: Nett, aber da fehlt doch die Sicherheit und somit der Gag.

Gag? It's been used several billion times before and doesn't impress anyone anymore. And the "gag" is even more lame when you translate it into English. Chuck it out and put in a decent English slogan, I say!

: Das ist Marketing! Mal was für die Hirnmuskulatur und nicht so schlaff und öde. Und wenn man eben genau überlegt, ist die Sicherheit da doch drin.

Your own suggestion (plus "A" at the beginning) sounds pretty good to me!

Efficient with security
As I understand this they are saying that they are efficient in handling items that need to be handled with security - items of value, money, safes etc.
So I think a literal translation works quite well here.

Safely there
after all, the vans contain safes to store the valuables. I know the efficiency has gone missing but...

Hi Klaus - no worries - after the takeover by Morrison who knows the name Safeway might soon disappear.

Efficiently safe
Naja, man kann das Wortspiel ja nicht richtig ins Englische übersetzen, da die Doppeldeutigkeit des Wortes nicht gegeben ist. Deshalb muss man sich etwas davon befreien. "Efficiently safe" bedeutet einfach nur "Sicher mit Effizienz". Hört sich zwar etwas doof an auf Deutsch, bringt aber die Sicherheit in den Vordergrund, was meiner Meinung nach wichtiger ist als die Effizienz. Wenn es nicht sicher ist dann kann die Effizienz nicht richtig punkten.
