The brand "GV Florida" is derived from the initials of George Florida and Virgilio Florida Jr., sons of the founder. Since incorporation in 1999, the family-run company from Matucay, Allacapan, Cagayan has grown to become one of the top bus transport providers in the Philippines.
Originally operating as Florida Liner in the 1970s, GV Florida gained attention with its iconic pink buses with floral livery—a symbol of comfort and hospitality. As demand grew, the company began operating inter-provincial routes and expanded to key destinations in Northern Luzon.
