How it started

Kefford Corporation

The Kefford Corporation was started in the early 1850s when Richard Papworth Kefford began operating horse-drawn lorries in Collingwood. The business later began operating trucks but sold that side of its business in 1976.

In January 1976, Kefford Corporation became a public transport operator, with the purchase of Point Cook – Werribee Passenger Service (trading as Blue Riband) based in Werribee.

In July 1987, Bono Bus Lines in Maidstone was purchased with route 406 Footscray – Keilor East and operated from a new depot in Footscray. As of 2021, the Bono family continues to operate Firefly Express in Maidstone.
