Modise Patrick Mokwena
Driver
I am a skilled driver with over 20 years of experience driving people around Gaborone and other parts of the SADC region. I am trained and well versed in ensuring passengers always felt safe and comfortable no matter how long the journey would be, or how challenging the road and traffic conditions are. I can plan for a route and ensure that alternative routes are available where there are threats to the normal route. I am equally experienced in performing routine car maintenance, ensuring a clean vehicle, fleet management and interacting with service providers to ensure quality of goods and services in ensuring a more than fit for purpose fleet. I am an exceptional talent with providing customer service and having great time management skills as all customers want to be delivered to their destination on time.
