What Fleet Africa does
FleetAfrica is a Sub-Saharan African fleet management company headquartered in Gauteng, South Africa, operating as a division of Super Group Africa (Pty) Ltd under the JSE-listed Super Group Limited conglomerate. Founded in 1987 (as Super Fleet, rebranded in 2002), the company provides end-to-end fleet solutions including Full Maintenance Leasing, Operating Leasing, Sale and Leaseback, Long-Term Rentals (12–36 months), Short-Term Rentals (a fleet of over 500 vehicles), and managed fleet services such as fuel, fines, license, toll, registration, and vehicle disposal. The company's technology stack comprises three proprietary in-house platforms: FleetGO (a mobile companion app for vehicle booking, condition assessment with image capture, and fines monitoring), FA Online (a cloud-based, customisable real-time reporting and dashboard portal), and FleetInspect (a cloud-based inspection tool launched in 2016). Telematics offerings include real-time fleet tracking, a 24-hour Fleet Intelligence Contact Centre with remote vehicle immobilisation and ground/air recovery, and accident analysis and reconstruction capabilities.
The company monetises primarily through subscription-based long-term leasing (with fixed monthly rentals including maintenance, tracking, insurance, and roadside assistance) and managed service fees on high-volume transactional processes (over 25,000 fines, 10,000 toll invoices, 15,000 registrations, and 5,000 license renewals handled monthly). Distribution runs through dedicated contract and key account managers, a 24/7 toll-free call centre (0800 10 15 20), three regional offices (Isando/Gauteng, Durban, Cape Town), an online Get Quote portal, and an E-One dealer partnership that extends reach into eight Sub-Saharan countries. Customer segments are concentrated in South African Government and Public Sector (national departments, provincial departments, state-owned companies, Chapter 9 institutions), municipalities across all tiers, and blue-chip private enterprises (large private entities, JSE-listed companies, multinationals). Two sub-brands — MotoCure (maintenance and service plans) and E-One (official Sub-Saharan dealer for US/European fire and rescue vehicles) — round out the product portfolio. FleetAfrica has held Level 1 BBBEE status since 2012 and maintains ISO 9001:2015 certification.
