Karooooo and Altron have traditionally competed to become the best in their business on the continent as the firms have similar offerings via Cartrack and Netstar. For a closer look at this, I joined Noluthando Mthonti - Mlambo on BusinessDay TV Altron is focusing efforts to growth its vehicle tracking unit Netstar, through an expansion of relationships with vehicle manufacturers and growing its book of enterprise customers that carry large fleets. This is according to group CEO Werner Kapp who told Business Day that the unit has grown its business through three channels: consumers, enterprises and vehicle manufacturers or OEMs (original equipment manufacturers). Altron has been under pressure to grow units like the Netstar business after the unbundling of Bytes Technology. The unit, a once-dominant player in its sector, had lost ground to competitors such as MiX Telematics, which recently merged with Powerfleet, and Karooooo-owned Cartrack.

Bismillah 🙏 Over the past two weeks, our team has been working tirelessly on building a new compatibility model. So, what does it actually do? Why did we create it? In the RV accessory industry, companies that sell jack pads for RV leveling feet face a common issue—helping customers find the right size for their specific RV trailer. The current systems out there rely on inquiry searches that require 5-6 different inputs from the customer to determine the correct jack pad size. But we've built something different. Our model is designed to match what the customer needs with only partial information. It’s smart and learns from its past interactions. Instead of asking for 5-6 inputs, our model only needs three: the RV type, the make, and the year. That’s it—no need for the customer to know the trim or leveling system. Why is this a big deal? It means less hassle for the customer—saving them time and effort. This reduces a lot of friction in the buying process, making it easier for people to find the right product without feeling overwhelmed by details they might not have at hand. Our goal is simple: to make things easier, faster, and more accurate for everyone involved. Stay tuned as we continue refining and improving this model, insha'Allah! Shout to my team Wadood Abdul, Ahmed Huossein, Johir Hossain and Asadullo Kurbonov

Tommy's Hot Take Tuesday! A little work = BIG returns. It only takes around $20 to clean a car, and that could boost its sale price by hundreds or even thousands.
