A bakkie fleet is rarely made of one model. It might include single cabs, double cabs and canopy units bought at different times, some with different colours. The branding challenge is to make them all look like they belong together, even though the panels are different.
We solve this with a master design and a set of templates, each adapted to a body style, with placements and sizes recorded so new vehicles can be added later and match the originals.

Master design and templates
We begin with your logo and brand colours and build a master layout. From that, we produce a template for each vehicle type in the fleet, for example a single cab with a canopy, a double cab with an open bin, and a double cab with a refrigerated body. Each template shows door, bin, tailgate and bonnet placements to scale. Once you approve them, the artwork is released to print.
Fleet numbering and identification
Fleet numbers help managers, gate staff and customers refer to a specific vehicle. We usually place a number on the tailgate, on the roof and on the door or bonnet, in a size readable from a distance. Reflective numbering can be added for night visibility. Numbers can be allocated in sequence, or matched to your existing asset register.
- Sequential or asset-register numbering
- Roof numbers for aerial or gate identification
- Tailgate numbers for following drivers and photo records
- Regional or depot codes in a smaller secondary size
Installation at your depot or ours
Fleet jobs are most efficient when vehicles are installed in batches. Depending on location, project size, site conditions and scheduling, our installers can work at your depot, or you can bring the vehicles to our Rivonia studio in groups. For fleets outside Gauteng, work is done direct or through approved partners, confirmed at quotation. We agree a schedule that keeps vehicles off the road for as little time as practical.
Keeping the fleet consistent over time
New vehicles, replacements and accident repairs all create opportunities for the fleet to drift. We keep your approved artwork files on record so replacement panels and new bakkies match. If your brand changes, our rebranding and fleet changeovers service handles removal and reapplication in stages. For the wider picture, see our fleet branding page.
Requesting a fleet quote
Use the fleet quote request and list your vehicle models, quantities and locations. Photos of one example of each model help us plan. Prices, timelines and material warranties are confirmed on your quotation once we have seen the vehicles.
Suitable branding options
At a glance
Bakkie fleet branding makes every vehicle in your business look like part of one company. A fleet is rarely made up of a single model: single cabs, double cabs and canopy units are bought at different times, in different colours, so the challenge is to keep the logo, colours and placements identical across all of them. We solve that by building one master design, adapting it to each body style and getting a single proof approved for the whole group.
Our fleet service covers door graphics, bonnet and tailgate artwork, canopy panels, reflective detail, fleet numbers and vehicle ID decals, supplied as cut vinyl, laminated print or full wraps. Fleet managers in Johannesburg, Sandton, Pretoria, Midrand, Centurion, Durban and Cape Town use consistent branding to build recognition, help with driver accountability and make replacement vehicles quick to match. When new bakkies arrive, the same files are reused so the fiftieth looks exactly like the first. Send a list of models, quantities and locations, and request a fleet quote for your bakkies. Installation is arranged at our Rivonia studio, at your depot or through approved partners, and studio visits are by appointment only.
Common questions
How do you keep different models consistent?
We adapt one master design to each body style using scaled templates and record the placements.
Can we roll out in stages?
Yes. Staged installation reduces downtime, and the approved files keep later batches consistent.
What if a bakkie in the fleet is damaged?
We reprint the affected panel from the stored artwork so it matches the rest.
Do you handle mixed ownership, such as drivers who own their bakkies?
We brand vehicles that the customer owns or operates. Ownership arrangements should be confirmed before work begins.
