About VAPAS, a.s.

A family-run transport company with three decades of history, strong values and a clear vision. We know you by name, not by a job number.

Our story

From farming to international transport

VAPAS, a.s. was founded in 1993 by Ing. Josef Záruba as a company providing services for agricultural production. Between 1996 and 2000, it gradually evolved into a fully fledged transport company.

In 2005, the company became a joint-stock company. A year later, it obtained ISO 9001 and GMP+ B4 certification, placing it among the Czech Republic’s leading feed transport carriers.

Today, it operates a fleet of more than 130 lorries from 7 depots across the Czech Republic. VAPAS is also part of a group of businesses in Hrušovany — Agrodílny, DAP+ and Ubytovna.
