Although technically, Group4 owns Securitas too.

[GCMC Security]

Same with Wackyhut and Group4

I get the impression Securitas does own Pinkerton here, but they still have a licensed branch office by the name Pinkerton.

Because Securitas is foreign owned, they cannot work certain types of contracts. Pinkerton Government Services is a wholly US owned company that is able to work these special accounts. Securitas makes $$ fro Pinkerotn, but is not allowed to have any say on the day to day operations or they can't work the accounts.

In some areas, the Securitas name is not as profitable as Burns and Pinkerton, so they kept it.

[HotelSecurity]

Didn't Securitas take over Pinkerton in the US as well as Canada
