Jelcz (pronounced like Yelch after the town of the same name) is a Polish manufacturer of trucks, buses, trolleybuses and different types of dedicated chassis.

Since 2013 the company is part of the Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa and operates with a focus on manufacturing off-road military vehicles.

In 1952, a decision was made to use a former German armaments factory in Jelcz-Laskowice near Wrocław for production in western Poland.

A company called Zakłady Budowy Nadwozi Samochodowych (Automobile Chassis Works) was established.

After the reconstruction of the factory, the company started to develop and build bus bodies for Lublin and Star trucks.
