As part of Micro Bird, Girardin is a manufacturer of bus bodies for minibuses for cutaway van chassis.

In 2009, Blue Bird Corporation entered into a joint venture with Girardin to produce Type A school buses.

From 1992 to 1999, Girardin and Blue Bird were in a partnership to sell the MB-II and MB-IV Type A school buses in North America.

[2] The first bus manufacturer in North America to develop a body for the Ford Transit cutaway cab chassis, Micro Bird introduced the T-Series model line in 2015, slotted between the MB-II and G5.

While the Transit replaced the E-series as a passenger van, the T-Series marked the introduction of a third model line, produced with a choice of axle configurations on a single body for the first time.
