Wells Fargo

Wells Fargo & Co. is a financial services company in the United States with consumer finance subsidiaries doing business in Canada, the Northern Mariana Islands and the Caribbean.

Headquartered in San Francisco, California, Wells Fargo is a result of the acquisition of California-based Wells, Fargo & Co. by Minneapolis-based Norwest Corporation in 1998. While extremely unusual, Norwest chose to change its name to that of the acquired company, in order to capitalize on the 150-year history of the Wells Fargo name and trademark stagecoach. As of September 30, 2005, Wells Fargo has 6,250 storefront locations, 23 million customers, and 153,000 employees.
