Operating in 10 countries, Fraikin manages more than 60,000 vehicles while advancing its mission to deliver sustainable and customer-centric fleet solutions.

Samsara, a leader in Connected Operations Cloud, uses IoT data to enhance safety, efficiency and sustainability in industries like transportation and logistics. Its platform serves thousands of businesses globally, transforming the future of physical operations.

Through this partnership, Fraikin and Samsara are shaping a new era in fleet management driven by digital innovation and a shared commitment to sustainability.

Leveraging technology across 60,000 vehicles

Fraikin has begun integrating Samsara’s advanced AI-powered tools across its European fleet of over 60,000 vehicles. It follows a successful initial deployment in more than 5,000 UK vehicles.

The integration includes AI Dash Cams, Asset Gateways and environmental monitoring solutions designed to enhance fleet efficiency and safety.

Fraikin’s flagship platform, NeXa, now incorporates Samsara’s real-time data insights to improve vehicle maintenance, track performance and reduce downtime.

The enhanced capability supports Fraikin’s customers in optimising their operations while improving fuel efficiency and reducing environmental impact.
