Greensboro, N.C. — Prevost received the largest contract in their history when they recently entered into a contract with Greyhound Lines to deliver up to 360 motorcoaches to the transportation company. The three-year deal specifies the delivery of the first 60 coaches in 2017 with the option to purchase the balance over a three-year period.

“Our team is quite excited to be able to build Greyhound buses again. We greatly value our long-standing relationship with Greyhound and are appreciative that they have chosen Prevost as their brand of choice,” says Francois Tremblay, Prevost vice president/general manager. “We believe product quality and exceptional service support made all the difference in their decision.”

“We are pleased to continue our partnership with Prevost over the next few years. The quality of buses they produce will help us to keep setting the highest standard for transporting customers across North America,” said Dave Leach, Greyhound president & CEO. “Our customers desire to travel in the safest and most comfortable bus available; motorcoaches from Prevost allow us to fulfill that need for them.”

Prevost is proud to partner with a company that has garnered the level of respect that Greyhound enjoys in the transportation industry. Founded in 1914, Greyhound Lines is the largest provider of intercity bus transportation, serving more than 3,800 destinations across North America with a modern, environmentally friendly fleet. The company employs 7,000 people and carries around 18 million passengers a year. Those passengers travel 5.4 billion miles a year on a fleet of around 1,700 Greyhound vehicles that travel to 48 U.S. states, 10 Canadian provinces, and Mexico.

“It is always a pleasure to work with our long-term partners at Greyhound & First Group. A true team effort went into the bid process that brought us to securing this contract and our relationship with GLI will continue to be a team effort stated Jack Forbes, Prevost vice president, North American Sales. From sales to manufacturing to the best aftermarket support team in the industry, we are all committed to the success of this partnership.”
