Aguia Branca (Scania Touring)

Founded in 1946, Viação Águia Branca is the first company to appear among the companies that make up Grupo Águia Branca, and became a reference in road transport.
The first bus of the company was acquired in 1946, with the purpose of being used in the transport of people between Governador Valadares and Teófilo Otoni, in Minas Gerais. Six months later, with the good result of the work, another bus was bought. The first business called Auto Viação 13 was formed.
In the early 1950s, Carlos Chieppe and his brother João Chieppe formed the company João Chieppe & Sobrinho (1950-1955) - in reference to Vallecio, the firstborn of Carlos - and gave a new direction to the passenger transportation business, starting to operate two new lines: Colatina-Vila Pancas and Colatina-Alto Rio Novo.

When Wander and Aylmer started working on the business, Carlos Chieppe and his sons bought John's part and created Vallecio Chieppe & Irmãos (1955-1956), which had a fleet of three buses. A company was born here that through work, dedication and overcoming of challenges would grow and be strengthened over time.
In 1956, Vallecio began a new career, received from mr. Carlos a bus and two lots in San Silvano, located in Colatina. Wander and Aylmer, on the other hand, continued together in the company Brothers Chieppe (1956-1958), that counted on two buses.

Knowing that Vallecio Chieppe was looking for a new business, businessman Ceny Judice Achiamé offered him the White Eagle Bus Company, founded in 1949 in the city of Colatina. In 1958, Vallecio invited Wander and Aylmer to participate in the purchase of another company, Viação Brasil, from Barra de São Francisco (ES -1958-1961). And within two years, the new company has expanded the fleet from 4 to 12 vehicles. On February 17, 1961, Viação Brasil and Empresa de Buses Águia Branca merged to form the Viação Águia Branca, commanded by the three Chieppe brothers. Read more [www.aguiabranca.com.br]
