Turnkey fleet management business with automated operations, mobile apps on iOS and Android, and a growing market ready for new ownership.
Fleet tracking in West Africa is still dominated by hardware resellers with thin software layers. The market is growing, and the window for a software-first platform is open.
Rapid urbanization, ride-hailing expansion, and logistics growth are driving fleet adoption across the region. GPS tracking is still early in its adoption curve.
Most competitors are hardware importers, not software companies. A platform built for local needs, local languages, and local payment methods has a structural advantage.
Every tracked vehicle generates location, speed, and behavioral data. This data compounds over time and unlocks scoring, predictive alerts, and fleet intelligence features.
The market has players, but none combine the full stack — proprietary software, local payments, mobile apps, SMB pricing — and a path to acquisition.

Revenue is early-stage. The value is in the platform, automation, market position, and the operational infrastructure already built to scale.
| ARPU | $7–15 /vehicle/month |
| Gross margin | 80%+ |
| Total hosting cost | <$200 /month |
| Hosting break-even | ~25 subscriptions |

Traxelio was solo-bootstrapped. No outside funding, no co-founders, no employees. One person built the entire stack: web application, mobile apps, back-office, automation, deployment pipeline, and marketing engine.
This was always a build-to-sell project. The platform was architected from day one for operational independence, not founder dependency. Every recurring task is automated. A new owner inherits a running system, not a to-do list.
No cap table. No investor obligations. No burn rate. Clean ownership, clean transfer.
Looking for a buyer who sees the market opportunity and wants to pour fuel on it.
Seven years. One engineer. Everything owned.

West Africa is not a niche. It is a large, underpenetrated market at the same stage South Africa was 10 years ago.
~2M+
Trucks, taxis, delivery vans, and minibuses across the 15 ECOWAS countries. A growing fleet driven by urbanization and logistics expansion.
<5%
South Africa reached 35%+ fleet GPS penetration after a decade of SaaS competition. West Africa is at the start of that curve.
$4.43M
Fleeti (Senegal fleet SaaS) raised from Janngo Capital, NewFund, and Proparco in 2023 — the same thesis, the same geography, confirming institutional appetite.
South Africa's top 5 players (MiX Telematics, Cartrack, Ctrack, Tracker, DigiCore) hold roughly 75% of the market. That consolidation took a decade.
West Africa has no equivalent. Hardware resellers hold the distribution, but none own the software layer. The category leader has not yet emerged.
Traxelio is positioned to be that leader, or to power it.
Illustrative model: 2M+ commercial vehicles across ECOWAS, at $10/vehicle/month.
