‘‘You've got to start somewhere.’’An enthusiastic Harry Albert was talking about starting his new bus company. The 57-year-old former miner has established Otago Coach Services, aimed at competing with large, internationally owned bus companies. Starting Otago Coach Services was about ‘‘looking to the future’’ and diversifying for a post-Covid operating environment, he said. The company started with three buses and had another two it could call on if there was demand. Otago Coach Services had only two staff at present — Mr Albert and driver Kim Hayward — and would be looking for more soon.
