History

As a result of the 2004 merger between Group 4 Falck A/S and Securicor plc, three Canadian security service divisions were united in Canada under a global brand.  

With over 9,100 employees across the nation, G4S brings a wealth of security knowledge and expertise to the Canadian marketplace.

Founded in October 1966 by retired members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police as Canadian Protection Services (CPS), G4S Security Services (Canada) Ltd. is well established as a leading security provider.

A recently expanded service offering, which includes all critical areas of the security industry, our Security Services and Systems team has over 6,000 employees across the country with 3,200 of them focused solely on servicing the Greater Toronto area.  

In early 2000, G4S Cash Services (Canada) Ltd. entered the Canadian market as Securicor, with the purchase of a number of cash services providers. Through these acquisitions, G4S Cash Services gained over 71 years of experience of the Canadian cash services market.

In 2005, expansion continued with the acqusition of Ontario’s largest regional service provider, a move that further ingrained the business in the nation’s largest market. With over 3,100 employees and 55 branches across the country, G4S Cash Services continues to operate the largest, market leading coast-to-coast service network in Canada.

In Canada, our complete focus as security experts is to provide innovative and quality security solutions to businesses across the nation. To find out more about our products and services in Canada, visit the following business lines below: Security Services
