Cebu Ferries was a brand and part of Aboitiz Transport System Corporation (ATSC) and later, Negros Navigation Co. (NENACO), and served the VisMin operations of ATSC. Its hubs were at Pier 4 in Cebu City, Philippines. In 2012, Cebu Ferries and its sister companies; SuperFerry and SuperCat merged with Negros Navigation and rebranded as 2GO Travel.
Formerly the shipping company was a subsidiary of William Gothong & Aboitiz,[1] better known as WG&A. Cebu Ferries was created to serve the VisMin Operations of WG&A.[2] When WG&A split up, Jon Ramon Aboitiz retained Cebu Ferries and its sisters SuperCat Fast Ferry Corporation and SuperFerry. And Cebu Ferries became part of Aboitiz Transport System which was later purchased by Negros Navigation, which in turn was purchased by the Chinese government through its wholly owned private equity firm the China-Asean Investment Cooperation Fund and renamed 2GO Travel.[3]
