The Viação Itapemirim S.A. was a Brazilian passenger road transport company. It was founded by businessman, military veteran and later politician Camilo Cola (1923–2021) on July 4, 1953,[2] in Cachoeiro de Itapemirim, Espírito Santo, Brazil. It was the largest road passenger transport business in Brazil and Latin America.
Due to financial difficulties and scandals involving the diversion of funds from the judicial reorganization to create ITA Transportes Aéreos, the company had a bankruptcy decree in court on September 21, 2022,[3][4][5] after EXM Partners, responsible for the company's judicial reorganization, reported not having more chances for the group to recover financially.[6]
