Mega-T, the premier expo for the trucking, transport, and trailer industry, is thrilled to announce some of the latest participants in this year’s event. Taking place from 5 to 7 October at Diamantvallei Landgoed east of Pretoria, Mega-T will showcase the latest products and services, cutting-edge technologies, and transformative trends that are revolutionising the industry. From trucks and trailers, tracking and security, parts and maintenance, to refueling systems, navigation and fleet management, this highly anticipated expo provides attendees with a one-stop industry shop.

Telematics solutions company Landmark Tracking have announced their participation in Mega-T 2023. Says Johann Raubenheimer, a Director at Landmark Tracking: “We were part of the first Mega-T in 2022 and saw the enormous potential the show has. We will stay part of this show, as it speaks directly to our target market – both clients and suppliers.” As a leading telematics solutions integrator and systems company, Landmark Tracking focuses on three key areas: multiple tracking solutions, dash cam and mobile camera solutions and intelligent fuel probe systems. Their numerous solutions will be on display at the show.

The company will be hosting demonstrations on their fuel probe in a tank, to show how immediate and accurate the alerts are. Their LMT fuel management offering allows for real time viewing and recording of all fuel activity on static or mobile fuel tanks. “Our system enables users to take back control of their company’s fuel expenditure, with reports they can count on”, explains Raubenheimer.

Local is lekker – with Trail- Link

“Getting involved in local events such as Mega-T that offers an opportunity to stimulate business growth and awareness is exactly where we want to be and what we want to do,” says Kim Collins, Head of Sales and Marketing at Trail-Link, which has signed up for the show. “These events offer opportunities for interaction, the exchange of ideas and the opportunity to network face to face with the real deal.”

Trail-Link has come a long way as a Proudly South African manufacturer and supplier. “We believe that local manufacturers, big or small, are the heartbeat of any economy and community,” continues Collins. “Our products are designed and manufactured specifically for the South African market and environment.” Ä family operated business established in 2004, the company started developing products based on previous experience in the transport industry. Trail-Link started with the development of a high quality electrical suzi coupling system with moulded plugs and a universal catch assembly providing LOCK-IN of these connectors. The range has since expanded due to industry demand to include plugs, sockets, harnesses and accessories, which are now fitted as standard on leading OE brands.

At Mega-T, Trail-Link will be displaying their locally manufactured electrical suzi coils and EBS/ABS braking coils, along with their red and yellow air coils.
