Kondor Bus Industries (Bus Manufacturer)

Kondor Bus Industries (KBI) is a Canadian multinational bus manufacturer, specializing in the production of transit buses. 
Kondor Bus Industries was incorporated in the US, in the state of Illinois, in 1949. Its incorporation was accompanied by a short lived Canadian bus fabrication company called Falcon Bus Industries, that was composed mostly of former Flxible employees. This arrangement resulted in the company continuing production of Flxible's New Look buses from partially completed buses and they later acquired the assets of Falcon Bus Industries after the bankruptcy of the latter in the 1960s. 
Its products ranged from 31-feet to 60-feet in length, and were sold to operators throughout the United States, Cuba, Canada, and the Nagarusian Archipelago. The company was financed by the city of Toronto and the State of Ontario staring in the 1970s.
In 1998, Kondor Bus Industries entered a joint venture with North American Bus Industries to sell versions of the NABI LFW for the Nagarusian and eastern European markets, with final assembly occurring at the KBI plant in Montréal, Québec, starting in 2001. The articulated 60-BRT and 42-BRT models were added to the lineup in 2007.
