Autocars Pays de Savoie

What Autocars Pays de Savoie does

Autocars Pays de Savoie is a French single-shareholder simplified joint-stock company (SASU) headquartered in La Roche-sur-Foron, Haute Savoie, operating passenger road transport services under the brand name Autocars Pays de Savoie. Its service portfolio covers school transport, regular departmental lines, ski-resort transfers, airport and rail-station shuttles, and tourist trips, including multi-day European itineraries, with explicit year-round coverage of both summer and winter mountain tourism. The fleet is composed of modern Euro 5 and Euro 6 vehicles and the company is a signatory to the Objectif CO2 environmental charter, with stated OEM partnerships with Iveco Bus and Mercedes-Benz for fleet supply.

The company monetizes through professional service fees for transport contracts and quote-based bookings; no public price list is published and customers request quotations online. Distribution combines direct sales (quote request form, telephone) with a FlixBus partnership for intercity routes, and the company supports English-language inquiries for inbound international tourists. Thierry Janeriat is listed as Director of Publication. The company is RGPD-compliant, active, and structured as a privately held SASU with €200,000 of share capital; no revenue, headcount, or funding figures are disclosed in the available data.
