GILLIG was founded over 115 years ago, in 1890, in San Francisco, for the purpose of modifying and building buggies and carriages - the main mode of transportation at that time. GILLIG adapted to the new horseless technology, but in 1906 the factory burned down in the great San Francisco earthquake and fire. That setback didn’t keep GILLIG down, the factory was soon rebuilt and the production of early model buses began, followed later by school buses and troop transports.Today, GILLIG only builds heavy-duty transit buses. They come in different lengths and in two basic models, the standard floor model called the Phantom and the newer Low Floor model. Both models have very good reputations having proven to be very reliable, durable and economical to operate. GILLIG buses are highly regarded by the U.S. transit industry, and GILLIG has a solid reputation of being the most stable and financially secure company, focused on satisfying our customers and delivering on our promises.GILLIG is the second largest producer of transit buses in North America and produces around 1,200 to 1,300 buses per year for hundreds of different customers, from Alaska to Florida.
