Who Invented Limousine? A Brief History
There is no denying the fact that limousines are the epitome of luxurious vehicles. Whether you have a prom to arrive at or have your big day coming up, limousines are always the cherry on top for your events.
But the question is who decided to create this esteemed status of limousines and where did it come from?
If we look into the history of chauffeured vehicles, the limo can easily date back to the early 18th century when lavishly adorned horse-drawn carriages used to be the transportation method for the upper-class to carry them around from one place to another.
The word “limousine” is derived from the French region of the same name (minus the ‘e’ – it is Limousin) and the possible reason why it was named after this locality is due to the popular fashion statement CLOAKS that were on the rise at that time in Limousin which somewhat resembles with the covered portion of the limousine vehicles.
Speaking of the covered portion, passengers at that time felt a little extra while riding inside their private enclosures. The driver can neither hear nor see anything past it which is still a selling point for limos in today’s world.
Fast forward to 1902, when the first-ever motorized limousine was created but the length of the limo at that time wasn’t as extended as it is today and still, the driver was forced to sit outside like it did while riding horse-drawn carriages. Also, the number of passengers it could fit inside was also limited to 5 maximum.
So to overcome this struggle a company from Fort Smith, Arkansas called Armbruster in 1928, launched the original “Stretch” limousine. Did you know? The initial use case of these stretch limos was to transport celebrities – to be specific Jazz celebrities as it was the popular genre and source of entertainment for the rich and royals of that era. These limos would carry around celebrities and the popular bands from one gig to another.
However, with time, the stretch limousines became a standard of transportation for many other groups and different purposes but remain a significant symbol of well-to-do people.
How To Get A Limousine License?
Like any other business, obtaining a license to run a limousine service requires a lot of paperwork. The processing of your limousine service license will definitely depend upon the regulations of your country, state, city or locality for that matter.
Apart from those, there are a few general steps that all limousine service providers around the world have to go through. So without further ado let’s dive right into them!
This guide will include:
- How to gather relevant and essential information
- Contact licensing authority
- How to incorporate your business
- Completing the application to obtain an authentic and correct business license.
1. Incorporating the business
Many regions and states require you run your business under a registered name and incorporate any delivery, including limousine services. For this, you will need to contact the Secretary of State’s Office and then you will be able to obtain the right documents which form an LLC, Proprietorship or a corporation.
2. Formatting a Business Plan
A very important aspect of the procedure is to disclose your financing for the limousine service to licensing authorities. This will include the cash flow, details of your limousines and assets, your budget and incorporation. You should provide all the required details within the business plan and we suggest getting help from a professional accountant or an agency.
3. Get the Limousines Registered
Another important step would be getting each one of your limousines registered as service vehicles by the state’s office secretary.
4. Gather Business Information
Make an annual sales report, file a copy of your budget, get your insurance information and your projected income for the coming year. You need all these along with your bank statement filed within the business plan disclosed.
5. Applying for State License and Submitting Application
You can contact the state office secretary to get the list of businesses that need to have a state license. Then, look for limousine service and to make things easier, you may look for your limousine service state application packages as a “Livery”.
Once done with the above steps, proofread your application before submitting.
Seal your application and submit it to your appropriate city department or Treasurer’s Office.
Keep in mind, the process will take several weeks to approve your license and you will be handed over the right documentation once you are registered by the state office.
