New Name for Bridgestone-Owned TomTom Telematics
9th September 2019
Following the acquisition of TomTom Telematics by Bridgestone Europe in April, the company has announced that TomTom Telematics’ company name will become Webfleet Solutions as of 1 October 2019.
The acquisition of TomTom Telematics is part of Bridgestone’s ongoing transformation from a premium tyre producer into a mobility solutions leader. The new Bridgestone company says it is Europe’s number one provider of fleet solutions, a double-digit growth industry.
The acquisition has reinforced Bridgestone’s footprint in data-based solutions that make fleet operations more effective and efficient. Now, the newly-named Webfleet Solutions – inspired by its main solution platform WEBFLEET, which has been providing leading telematics for fleets for the past 20 years – reflects Bridgestone’s ambition to provide a wider range of digital mobility and fleet solutions to its customers and consolidate a global leadership position. The EMEA business now serves over 1.2 million vehicles with mobility subscriptions and fleet solutions.
