overview
Located in Lithuania,
represented in 18 countries
We are a professional enterprise manufacturing mini- and midibuses, operating in this field since 2002. Conformity with the highest standards, team determination and expertise allowed us to become one of the largest producers of various purpose vehicles in Lithuania in just 3 years, and in 2007, be the first to offer our products in the Western and North Europe. We were the first producer from the Eastern Europe to participate in the major bus exhibition Busworld 2007 in Belgium.
In 2008, we launched active projects in the European countries seeking creation of professional dealers’ network. Our professional experience allowed to achieve excellent results: very quickly we started cooperation with the professional sales agents in Germany, Norway, Sweden, Finland and other European countries.
Year 2014 was the turning point in the company operations in terms of changes and improvement. With considerable investments into production capacity, process reorganisation, technologies and application of LEAN methodologies, we have guaranteed a rapid growth. In 2016, we became the first by sales on the Scandinavian market and the leaders in this field in the Western Europe.
We are currently operating in 18 European markets and developed a reliable network of dealers and service points.
