Our core business is Software Development.
VMG is an acronym for Vehicle Management Group. We serve the independent retail motor Industry of
South Africa with comprehensive and easy-to-use Dealership and Workshop Management Software
(DMS / WMS).
Our software eco-system helps our customers, and their teams streamline and centralise their admin,
accounting, web management, crm/lsm and mobile application needs of our customers. Access to the
vast amounts of data generated by Dealerships and Workshops is made instantly available through a
very wide and comprehensive array of reports and stats pages.
VMG was registered in 2007 and at the start of 2022 we are privileged to serve almost 500 dealership
branches and workshops nationally. Our small team of 31, help build products and provide support to
our users.
The VMG team delivers one on one shoulder to shoulder training for all users who are then further and
proudly supported by our amazing support and frontline team members.
IN THE BEGINNING #
In 2006, our founding member Tony Green, owned a small but successful software development
company named AMG Computing. AMG Computing developed software for small and medium sized
businesses.
During a game of golf, Tony was asked to develop a system to help a dealer in Cape Town eliminate the
massive duplication of data being experienced through the use of Excel spreadsheets, stock cards, OTP
and Invoice books and Pastel at their dealership.
A few months later an invoicing and profit per reporting system was developed and the early stages of
VMG had been born. (Thank you Morné).
Within a few weeks, other dealers started to contact Tony to ask him if they could also use the same
system. These requests continue today with word of mouth being our primary sales driver.
There are many wonderful adventures that VMG can share, but those stories for another time.
