Volgren is an Australian bodywork company previously owned by Volvo and the Grenda Corporation but is now entirely owned by the latter. It was established in 1977, initially supplying bodywork for Volvo buses sold in Australia, and later supplying bus bodywork on all types of chassis for both local sale and export. Volgren also supplies bus bodies in kit form.

Volgren has manufacturing facilities in Dandenong, Victoria (VG); Malaga, Western Australia (VP); and New Zealand (VNZ). Brisbane Transport assembles Volgren bodies for their own buses in Toowong, Queensland (VQ) using kits supplied by Volgren in Victoria.
