Experience that can be trusted

sgfleet is a significant player in the international Fleet Management and Leasing industry with operations in Australia, New Zealand and United Kingdom. sgfleet manage in excess of 75,000 assets and is also a leading provider of vehicle Salary Packaging solutions in the Australian marketplace. sgfleet is the partner PHH ARVAL Global Alliance member for Australia and New Zealand.

sgfleet's decades of experience commenced in Australia with the formation of Leaseway Transportation in 1986 as a specialist Fleet Management company. Quickly following in 1988, was the establishment of a joint venture with CBFC (the finance company arm of the Commonwealth Bank of Australia); Leaseway brought fleet management expertise to the joint venture while CBFC brought financing capability for the underlying leases.

In the late nineties CBA acquired Leaseway Transportation, rebranding it in 2000 as Commonwealth Fleet Lease. This led to the establishment of a business relationship with CBA that continues today.

In 2004, Super Group bought this highly successful Fleet Management business from Commonwealth Bank. Immediately upon acquisition, Super Group, a South African conglomerate listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, rebranded Commonwealth Fleet Lease to Fleet Australia.

In May 2005, Fleet Australia acquired SMB Salary Packaging, which was a leading specialist provider in the Australian marketplace of vehicle Salary Packaging services. In 2007, the business, which had branches in every state of Australia, further expanded its fleet operations by establishing offices in the United Kingdom and New Zealand.

Subsequent to the acquisition of the National Australia Bank’s Commercial Fleet portfolio, Super Group consolidated its fleet management and salary packaging interests. These comprised of FleetAustralia, SMB Salary Packaging and Commercial Fleet. In April 2008, they were united under one brand - sgfleet.

In April 2011, a consortium led by CHAMP Ventures, and including the senior management team of sgfleet, made a significant investment in sgfleet, alongside the current parent company, Super Group. This association further supports sgfleet’s growth plans and commitment to leading innovation in fleet management.

sgfleet’s specialist staff apply their skills across all facets of its operations. sgfleet’s business model harnesses the skills of this experienced team to ensure that this international business is at the forefront of innovation and customer service.
