About: FAS Sanos

Sanos (Macedonian: Санос) is a company from Skopje, North Macedonia, which produces urban, suburban and intercity buses, airport buses and special vehicles. The factory was established in 1946 as a Yugoslav state factory under the name FAS "11. Oktobar" AD Skopje, although the roots of the plant date back to 1930 when the factory was a workshop for repair and production with more than 30 workers. In 1967, the then Sanos Bus Factory started cooperation with a Yugoslav producer, as a result of which 15 prototype Sanos A9 models were created in Poland in Sanos A9. Under the brand Sanos, the factory had produced all types of buses, medium buses, vehicles, special vehicles, airport buses and subcontracting successfully lasted until 2001, when production was temporarily halted.
