Partnership Delivers Unparalleled Heavy Vehicle Fleet Management Safety Solution
PERTH, Australia, March 02, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- MiX Telematics (JSE: MIX) (NYSE: MIXT), a leading global SaaS provider of connected fleet management solutions, is pleased to announce it has partnered with SGESCO- MAX in Australia.
The partnership will enable both companies to deliver an integrated, end-to-end fleet eco-system, specifically targeting safety metrics for customers.
Founded in South Africa in 1996, MiX Telematics services clients in over 120 countries with an Australasian office in Perth and offices and dealers in other states including Queensland where SGESCO-MAX is headquartered.
MiX's offerings include in-vehicle monitoring systems and fleet management software solutions for fleets of all sizes. They partner with global customers who are focused on achieving and maintaining the highest levels of safety, efficiency, sustainability, compliance and security.

According to Scott, SGESCO-MAX will focus initially on integrating these solutions with the MAX-SAFE Speed Limiting Solution™ and MAX-SAFE Anti-Rollaway Brake System™. Both of which can identify risky driving events, high-risk sites and provide vehicle diagnostics all working synergistically to help customers improve their safety records across the board.
