When was Easy Coach started?

History of Easy Coach Company

In an exclusive interview with Africa outlook magazine, Mr Dossa spoke about his daring journey.

โ€œThe service providers existing then were, although acceptable, not up to the mark. We went on to establish a company with a different concept and to create a perception of the new kid on the block, delivering what the customers deserved and should have. Of course, travellers grabbed the concept and the company picked up. We created a niche, more premium market for ourselves, and the rest is history.โ€

Two decades later, the company is still profitable with plans to take over the international transport market.

As we speak, Easy Coach transports a record-high 1.2 million passengers and 1.3 million parcels every year. As a result, the company is a leading employer with 1,000 workers on the payroll.

Elsewhere, global auditing KPMG awarded the company a super brand status. Dossa insists that customer safety is a priority in all operations.

โ€œCustomers would love to travel with a bus that guarantees them their safety. And for us as Easy Coach, security is our major concern. We encourage staff training and carry out at least two in-house sessions annually and all our drivers undergo refresher courses on a daily basis. Additionally, we afford time off to our staff that have joined colleges and institutions of higher learning to further their skills.โ€

To ensure safety, all buses are frequently serviced with close checks on safety belts and speed restrictors. Limiting driving to 8 hours for all drivers is commendable in averting accidents.
