A New Era of Asset Security in the Garden Route
At DigitFMS, we pride ourselves on being more than just a vehicle tracking company. We are a partner in asset security, fleet optimisation, and operational excellence for businesses and individuals across South Africa. Today, we are proud to announce the launch of DigitFMS Outeniqua Sentinel (DigitFMS OS) — our newest franchisee under the leadership of Jurie Viljoen, dedicated to serving the heart of the Garden Route: Oudtshoorn, George, Mossel Bay, Knysna, Sedgefield, Karatara, and Rheenendal.
This launch marks a significant expansion of our national footprint, bringing world-class DigitFMS solutions closer to local businesses, fleet operators, and residents in one of South Africa’s most dynamic and growing regions.
Why the Garden Route Needs DigitFMS
The Garden Route is more than just a tourist paradise; it is a thriving hub of logistics, agriculture, transport, tourism, and trade. With major towns like George and Mossel Bay acting as critical logistics corridors, and communities such as Knysna and Sedgefield driving tourism and local commerce, the need for reliable asset security and fleet management solutions has never been greater.
Challenges that businesses and individuals in the area face include:
- Rising vehicle theft and hijacking rates in South Africa.
- Fuel theft and misuse impacting profitability in logistics and transport.
- Operational inefficiencies due to poor fleet oversight.
- Insurance requirements for asset and cargo security.
By establishing DigitFMS Outeniqua Sentinel, we are ensuring that business owners, logistics operators, farmers, contractors, and private vehicle owners in these regions can now access the same world-class technology and 24/7 monitoring that DigitFMS provides nationwide.
