The AI-driven vehicle logistics and asset utilisation systems group that has Cartrack as its main subsidiary on Wednesday reported a 20% increase in subscription revenue to R1.182 billion.

Callisto said in an interview that this growth figure was 15% last year, and the group had made a commitment to accelerate this growth.

“We accelerated Cartrack subscription revenue growth, year-to-date, by further expanding our distribution footprint in existing markets, driving broader platform adoption, and capitalising on growing demand for video solutions,” said Callisto in an interview.
