On June 16, Trobec’s Bus Service, Inc., based out of St. Stephen, broke ground at their soon to be new location in St. Joseph. They are partnering with Rice Companies and Century Bank to help build this new permanent facility.
Trobec’s is a top of the line bus service that can take their customers from Minnesota to anywhere in the United States. They have been in business for over 80 years and have been in many different buildings since around the 60s.
While the business was first started by Tony and Frances Trobec in 1938, it was passed down to their children and then in 1985 Tim Schubert started with the company as a driver and mechanic. Today he is the president and CEO of Trobec’s and his daughter Bethany Bertram is the vice president, together they run the company.
In Bertram’s speech at the ground break, she said that St. Joseph was the most welcoming place for them to choose from. This new facility should be ready in early 2023 and they are expecting to be able to create more jobs and have a suitable work environment for their employees as well as continue to get people where they need to go.
