Etymology and logo
The name of the bus company Genesis is a biblical word meaning "the beginning". Half of the letter "G" in its logo shows the Philippine map, representing the center of the company's operations.
History
Genesis started its operations in 1991, with a shuttle bus between Paskuhan village and the malls in Metro Manila.[2] From there, it grew to owning three buses, which it operated with a crew of six people, and two partners. In 2007, Genesis Transport had a total of 300 buses, servicing routes to key destinations in Central Luzon; including Tarlac, Bataan, Cabanatuan, Aurora, and Baguio.
In 2009, the company was one of the sponsors of the 5th Philippine Bird Festival in Bataan.[3]
