Vault Services

When valuable assets require more than ordinary storage, a professional vaulting solution provides an additional layer of security, control, and accountability.

Loomis Cargo provides Vault Services for precious metals, bullion, high-value commodities, jewellery, and other approved assets requiring secure custody within a professionally managed environment.

Our vault services are designed to support the complete asset lifecycle—from secure receipt and verification to inventory management, controlled access, authorized release, and onward transportation.

Whether assets are held temporarily during a transaction or maintained as part of an ongoing inventory, Loomis Cargo provides a structured custody framework designed around security, confidentiality, and operational control.

Our vault solutions extend beyond precious metals to selected high-value assets requiring enhanced physical protection and controlled custody.

Potential assets may include:

• Jewellery
• High-value commodities
• Valuable equipment
• Sensitive commercial goods
• Strategic inventories
• Selected confidential materials

Each engagement is assessed individually to establish the appropriate custody and access requirements.

Establishing Control from the Moment Assets Arrive

The vaulting process begins when assets are received.

Loomis Cargo coordinates appropriate intake procedures designed to establish a clear record of what has entered custody.

Depending on the engagement, the intake process may include:

• Authorized collection
• Identity verification
• Documentation review
• Package identification
• Quantity verification
• Weight recording
• Condition recording
• Asset identification
• Receipt issuance
• Inventory registration

Where independent inspection, weighing, assay, or testing is required, appropriately qualified third parties can be coordinated.

Secure Custody Within the Transaction Lifecycle

Vaulting can play an important role in the secure execution of precious metals transactions.

Loomis Cargo can coordinate vault services at various stages, including:

Before Verification
Assets can be held securely while required inspection or verification processes are completed.

During Transaction Processing
Assets can remain in controlled custody while documentation and transaction requirements are finalized.

Before Export
Gold can be securely stored while export and logistics arrangements are completed.

During Buyer Delivery
Assets can remain in custody while final delivery arrangements are coordinated.

Between Logistics Stages
Vault services can provide a secure transfer point between transportation and onward movement.
