Moventis is a name which readers in the UK might not have heard before, but it is one which is constantly spreading its reach across Europe and beyond. The company is one of two brands belonging to Spanish company Moventia, which is active in many sectors of land transport. Sister company Movento specialises in private mobility, including car and motorcycle dealerships, whilst Moventis is the public mobility division which is expanding its reach in the international arena.

With a long history behind it, it has positioned itself as a forward-looking company, seeking to anticipate new trends and move with the times to offer a range of essential public transport and mobility solutions.
