Loomis (formerly Loomis, Fargo & Co.) is a cash handling company. The modern company was formed in 1997 by the consolidation of two armored security concerns, Wells Fargo Armored Service and Loomis Armored Inc. Loomis is an international leader in the cash handling services industry. Their international network covers over 400 operating locations in the US and eleven western European countries.
In the US, Loomis operates an electronically linked service network of nearly 200 operating locations, employs over 8,000 teammates and utilizes a fleet of approximately 3,000 armored and other vehicles to provide secure armored transport, automated teller machine (ATM) services, cash processing and outsourced vault services for banks, other financial institutions, commercial and retail businesses. It was a division of Securitas AB from 2001 to 2008, when it was listed at Nasdaq OMX Stockholm.
When the express mail firm of Wells Fargo & Company ceased express service in 1918 upon the organization of American Railway Express, the company continued to exist, though no longer an operating company in the United States. George C. Taylor of American Express was president of American Railway Express with Burns D. Caldwell of Wells Fargo as chairman of the board of directors. Davis G. Meller, previously the firm's foreign traffic manager, assumed the presidency of Wells Fargo in 1918.
Loomis was a station on the Englewood Branch of the Chicago 'L'. The station opened on July 13, 1907 and closed in 1969 when the new Ashland Terminal opened.
