The company originally received £450,000 in 2005 from PIF, the £37 million fund aimed at supporting growing businesses in Yorkshire and the Humber, which enabled operations to expand and develop.
A further £100,000 loan later that year meant that the assets of a competitor could be acquired from the receiver, giving Bluebird additional product lines.
The team of 60 staff designs and manufactures specialist vehicles, creating mobile libraries and medical units and low-floor accessible vehicles, allowing operators to comply with disability discrimination legislation.
