Why it Matters

Africa runs on over 45 million vehicles — most with no digital history, no verified repair process, and no diagnostic system. Here’s what it’s costing us:

  1. $300: what the average Nigerian car owner overpaid last year on repeated or unnecessary fixes due to wrong diagnostics
  2. $ Billions in downtime, wrong parts, and damages
  3. Mechanics eager to improve, but lacking the tools or support

Fortel fixes the first step — so the rest can work
