About the Company
Bon Tour employs 500 employees, in various
branches nationwide. In 2012 the American
Shamrock Growth Fund (the investment arm of
Disney) chose Bon Tour as a preferred, smart
and profitable investment, by trusting the com-
pany’s financial and operative efficiency. Due to
its financial sturdiness and the management’s
efforts, Bon Tour achieves notable accomplish-
ments in growth, profitability and service.
Improving Customer Service
The company maintains a meticulous uncompro-
mising service policy. In recent years, the com-
pany has been investing substantial amounts
in equipment and in infrastructure.
Investing in Technological Transportation
Solutions
The company views advanced technology as an
ultimate value that provides safe and efficient
service, personally tailored to its clients.
Over the years, the company invested many
resources in developing technological systems
that are implemented both in the vehicle fleet
as well as in work procedures:
Localization, control and indication systems–
the company implements in its transportation
vehicles control and supervision systems, which
transmit data regarding the situation of the vehi-
cle, its location and the driver’s performance.
The systems provide the driver with indication
signals to improve and enhance safety during
the drive as well as directions to the best driv-
ing route, and more. The company invests in
Mobileye systems to improve driving safety,
advanced fire extinguishing systems on buses
and more.
Computerized systems at the customer’s
house–
the company’s customers enjoy desig-
nated software that enables them to plan trans-
portation routes and transmit them directly to
the company. The system provides information
and indexes pertaining to the location of the
vehicles, arrival time at their destination, and in
addition provide computerized reports and data
regarding travel time, routes characterization
and more. This enhances employee transporta-
tion efficiency to and from work.
Investing in Human Resource
As a progressive prominent transportation com-
pany, the company recruits the finest drivers,
employees and managers, who are provided
with a home, a pleasant work environment,
various benefits and one of the field’s highest
salaries. The company’s drivers’ recruitment
programs include choosing quality drivers who
are trained by the company, undergo practical
examinations, tests, practical training and ac-
companiment by professional transportation
advisors. When the training period is over, the
new driver accompanies a senior driver for on-
the-job-training, and is then accepted to the
company, as a driver. Select drivers are awarded
excellence marks and encouraging monetary
rewards.
Business Strategy
The company’s executive team emphasizes the
company’s constant development and growth by
purchasing activity of trustworthy solid trans-
portation companies. Since 2008, Bon Tour has
purchased the activity of 8 transportation com-
panies and has founded new branches, thereby
availing its services nationwide. Among the
branches are those located in Tiberius, Modi’in,
Or Yehuda, Ben Gurion Airport and Hadera. In
2015 the company acquired “Tour Bus”. This
acquisition enables Bon Tour to enter the public
transportation market thanks to Tour Bus’ 38%
shares in Metropoline bus company, which oper-
ates bus lines in the Sharon and the Negev.
Contribution to the Community
Bon Tour considers community contribution as
an important value and an inseparable part of
proper corporate and organizational culture. The
social involvement includes donations to major
foundations and the employees volunteering for
various groups. The company purchases and
gives festive goods on Purim in hospitals and
donates buses to valuable social activities.
Environmentalism
Bon Tour emphasizes its contribution to the
environment and operates vehicles in accord
with European standards pertaining to pollut-
ing emission of Euro 5 and Euro 6 standards.
Using Euro 6 standard means using “Urea” fuel
additive in buses and minibuses, which renders
a decrease of poisonous nitrogen oxide from
diesel vehicles. Environmentalism is a consider-
ation also when planning routes for the clients,
with the intent to reduce the amount of vehicles
performing the transportation and to use an al-
ternative of larger-capacity vehicles. At Bon Tour
we care about recycling paper, toners and print
cartridges. Bon Tour is committed to preserve
the environment and reduce polluters.
