Tinotenda Hove – Zvishavane is in mourning following the untimely death of Alice Pote, a well-known businesswoman and owner of Stallion Cruise buses. She passed away at the age of 33 due to respiratory failure, her brother Anthony Pote confirmed.

Alice was more than just a familiar face in the local transport industry. As the driving force behind Stallion Cruise, she helped build a brand that became synonymous with reliability and excellence on the roads of Zimbabwe. Her contributions went beyond the bus company—she also served as the financial director of Pote Holdings for a decade, playing a crucial role in the family’s business empire.

The news of her death has left the Zvishavane community devastated. Tributes have poured in from friends, colleagues, and passengers who came to know and admire her dedication and work ethic. For many, she was not only a successful entrepreneur but also a symbol of hope and empowerment, especially for young women aspiring to make their mark in male-dominated industries.

Her passing leaves a void that will be hard to fill. As Zvishavane grieves, residents remember Alice for her generosity, her passion for progress, and her tireless efforts to uplift the local economy.
