A history of expertise, innovation and quality
In 1998, the company founded INKAS® Finance Corp. to take advantage of developing opportunities in the ATM and POS marketplaces. Supplying ATM and POS products and services was a logical extension of the INKAS® Group of Companies business plan as the Company was then able to bundle cash management services with installation, servicing and transaction processing.
In 1999, the company founded INKAS® Manufacturing which initially offered safes and grew to include armoured vehicle manufacturing.
Currently the company is able to offer clients and services a broad scope of security, ATM, and POS-related products and services. As an integrated security products and services supplier, the INKAS® Group of Companies is able to offer small, mid and national clients a “one-stop” source of high quality security and cash management products at an extremely competitive price.
The company’s principal offices are located at 64 Signet Drive in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The current 60,000 square foot head office, warehouse and manufacturing space is adequate for the company’s next five years of projected operations.
The INKAS® Group Companies also has a sales and service office in Gatineau, Quebec and INKAS® Security operates out of a facility in Concord, Ontario.
