NEW NAME, SAME SECURITY

Phantom may have changed its name to Moving Intelligence, but it continues to offer its popular tracking systems

NEW NAME, SAME SECURITY

Whether or not you have a tracking unit fitted to your motorhome, the chances are, you’ve heard of Phantom trackers.

In October 2021, along with another local company, AMI, which deals with trackers for construction vehicles and plant, Phantom was acquired by the Moving Intelligence Group, based in the Netherlands, Germany, and now the UK.

It may have changed its name, but it still offers a range of popular security products.

And as with many things in the world of motorhome, how Phantom came about is an interesting story. I recently visited the new Moving Intelligence premises near Stockport, where I spoke to Sales Director and co-founder of Phantom, Steve Cherry.
