The Company was born from the division of SITA (a historical company founded in 1912) into two separate and independent companies. Busitalia operates in the northern central area of Italy.

Busitalia predominantly operates in local public transport in Tuscany, Umbria, Veneto, and further to its latest acquisitions, Campania.

The transport offer of the Busitalia group currently includes about 100 million bus km per year, 2.7 million train km*, and 41,000 nautical miles, with around 2300 buses, 46 trains, 18 trams, and 7 ships. It employs over 4,000 people.

Since April 2017 Busitalia has also entered the long-distance travel sector with the Busitalia Fast service, dedicated to people who like to travel long distances in the comfort and safety of a coach, with a high-quality, innovative and recognisable service. The service is provided by Busitalia Simet, the new integrated mobility company created by the acquisition by Busitalia – Sita Nord of 51% of Simet, the historic company that has offered long-distance bus services in Italy and abroad since 1946.
