Comment - They sponsor the football club Ceres–Negros F.C., is that a good claim to notability? In addition, there does seem to be quite a bit of coverage about the company, although they appear to mostly be about accidents involving their buses, or news about their fares. With that said, there does appear to be some coverage about the company, such as this link and this link, but I'm not sure of their reliability (the latter link appears to be a local newspaper of some kind).

Keep Being the sponsor of the football club Ceres–Negros F.C. is a good claim to notability. In addition to the sources Narutolovehinata5 found, I also found this article from Sun.Star's Superbalita Cebu and this article from The Philippine Star. I also found this book source:

  New Business Opportunities for Transport Companies
  
  With an expanded Ro-Ro network in place throughout the country, the trucking industry has widened its market coverage and is gradually undergoing a major transformation in the manner in which it conducts business. The following case study focuses on the impact of Ro-Ro on Vallacar Transit Corporation, the largest bus company in the Philippines.
  
  Vallacar Transit Corporation
  
  Vallacar Transit Corporation runs a number of major fleets, including Vallacar Transit, Rural Transit of Mindanao, Bachelor Express, and Ceres Transport. To date, it has the largest bus fleet in the country with more than 2,000 buses operating in the provinces of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao (Table 9). The following paragraph gives a list of the destinations as well as the routes being served by this company, which is already operating on nearly 8% of the bus routes in the Visayas and Mindanao regions, as well as parts of Luzon.
  [Table 9: List of Routes Serviced by Vallacar Transit]
  Within its Bacolod (Negros) transport hub alone, the Ceres Liner services the following destinations from Bacolod: Escalante, Minapasok, Dumaguete, Kabankalan, San Carlos via Cadiz, San Carlos via Don Salvador Benedicto, Hinoba-an, Candoni, Culipapa, Canlaon via San Carlo, Cadiz, Binalbagan, and Fabrica.
  The company is continuously exploiting new opportunities due to the expansion of the Ro-Ro network. For example, because of the opening of Ro-Ro routes linking Bacolod and Negros Occidental to Cebu (Escalante–Tabuelan and San Carlos–Toledo routes) and to Mindanao (via Damaguete–Dapitan link), Ceres' buses now service Cebu City and Zamboanga City. In 2008, the bus company extended operations from Cebu to the Samar-Leyte region, because of the available Ro-Ro links on the Tacloban (Leyte)–Cebu and San Isidro–Cebu Ro-Ro routes. In 2008, Ceres Liner pioneered inter-modal transport service (i.e., via land and Ro-Ro transport) from Cubao in Quezon City all the way to Zamboanga City using the Western Nautical Highway.
  I also used this source for the parent company, Vallacar Transit (VTI), at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vallacar Transit (VTI).
