Algo Technologies was created to provide in-house support to a number of related companies which are focused on servicing supply chains within the mining and trading environment across Southern Africa. During this period the Algo team has seen numerous problems that these companies need to contend with on a day to day, week to week and month to month basis. With improvements in technology and communication over time, especially in emerging economies like Southern Africa there is an opportunity to solve these problems, by using simple and intuitive digitized frameworks which can be easily understood across complex market platforms. Following the success of Algo in servicing these companies, a strategic decision was made to spin Algo off into standalone entity.
