Verdant IMAP is pleased to announce that it acted as sole financial advisor and arranger to Ctrack Holding on the successful closing of a USD 23.4 million (ZAR 406 million) equity raise for Ctrack Holdings. The investment, led by Sanari Capital and 27four Investment Managers, both recognised leaders in South Africa’s investment space with strong B-BBEE credentials, will support Ctrack’s continued international expansion following the acquisition of Inseego’s global telematics business.
The funding was secured through Sanari’s 3S Growth Fund, which contributed USD 14.4 million (ZAR 250 million), and 27four Investment Managers, which invested USD 9 million (R156 million).
This transaction represents the reunification of Ctrack’s global business. In 2021, Convergence Partners acquired the Africa and Middle East operations of Ctrack from Inseego. In 2024, Ctrack completed the acquisition of Inseego’s remaining international telematics operations across Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. With this new equity injection, the company is consolidating its platform, technology, and customer base under a single global structure.
Ctrack’s Crystal platform delivers predictive telematics insights to clients in industries such as logistics, construction, government, and insurance, and is now positioned to scale its services seamlessly across Africa, the UK, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.
Hein Jordt, Chief Executive Officer of Ctrack, commented:
“This reunification is a defining milestone in Ctrack’s history. With the backing of Sanari Capital and 27four Investment Managers, and the continued support of Convergence Partners, we are once again bringing together the full scope of Ctrack’s global operations. This positions us to deliver a seamless international offering, underpinned by innovation, scale, and an unwavering commitment to our customers across Africa and developed international markets.”
Brandon Doyle, Chief Executive Officer of Convergence Partners, added:
“Verdant IMAP helped bring trusted partners Sanari and 27four on board, strengthening the shareholder base for Ctrack’s next phase of global growth. We are pleased to partner with them as Ctrack continues to scale, innovate, and deepen its impact for customers worldwide.”
The participation of Sanari Capital and 27four Investment Managers underscores investor conviction in Ctrack’s growth trajectory and highlights the role of inclusive capital in building globally competitive technology businesses.

Africa Fact: West Africans built in stone by 1100 BC. In the Tichitt-Walata region of Mauritania, archaeologists have found “large stone masonry villages” that date back to 1100 BC. The villages consisted of roughly circular compounds connected by “well-defined streets”.
