TRADO-BUS

TRADO-BUS, s.r.o. is a Czech bus transport company headquartered in Třebíč. It traces its origins to the former state road-transport enterprise ČSAD Třebíč, and in 1997 the transport group ICOM transport acquired a majority stake in the company, since when TRADO-BUS has been a member of the ICOM transport group. The carrier operates from depots in Třebíč, Moravské Budějovice, Náměšť nad Oslavou and Rosice u Brna. TRADO-BUS focuses on public passenger transport. According to its operator profile, it runs public scheduled bus services on roughly 50 routes using 99 modern Mercedes-Benz buses, mainly within the Vysočina Region but also serving parts of the South Moravian Region, with long-distance routes reaching as far as Prague. Its activities also include urban mass transit and contractual transport, as well as servicing and repairing Mercedes-Benz vehicles. The company's ISO 9001:2015 certificate, renewed in 2021, covers international and domestic road transport with its own vehicles (including ADR and ATP regulated transport), Mercedes-Benz vehicle service and repairs, and the provision of regular public passenger transport, urban mass transit and contractual transport with its own buses. The fleet is dominated by Mercedes-Benz and Setra vehicles. As of the fleet listing cited by Wikipedia, this includes large numbers of Setra S 415 LE business / S 418 LE business and Setra S 515 LE / S 518 LE buses, together with Mercedes-Benz Intouro, Mercedes-Benz Citaro C2, Mercedes-Benz Tourismo and a Rošero First minibus. In 2023 the company acquired 42 new Mercedes-Benz vehicles, continuing a fleet-modernisation policy. As a regional carrier within a larger group, TRADO-BUS is not a listed company in its own right; it is a subsidiary within the privately held ICOM transport group, whose parent ICOM transport a.s. obtained ISO 9001:2000 certification in 2001, regularly renewed since. The brand is known in the Czech transport market chiefly as a dependable regional bus operator serving the Vysočina area and connecting it with Brno and Prague.
