28East achieves Google Cloud Specialization in Location-Based Services

By 28East Pty Ltd


10 May 2021, Centurion (South Africa) – Following a rigorous certification process that builds on 28East’s previous Google Partnership training, the company has obtained its Google Cloud Platform Specialization in Location-Based Services.


28East develops interactive map-based applications for its clients in Africa, helping them to unlock sales leads from maps, simplify checkouts with its Delivery Address Solution, and optimise deliveries with a Last Mile Delivery Solution. As a Premier Google Maps Partner, local firms can benefit from local procurement, local support and product optimisation with 28East’s Google trained technical team.


“Besides differentiating 28East as part of Google’s elite group of partners, the audit process has helped us identify gaps in our workflow, as well as upskill our team of Google Cloud experts,” said Marius van der Merwe, managing director of 28East.


Google Expertise and Specializations help clients gauge the quality of a vendor in advance, based on their technical know-how and experience in addressing a specific business challenge.


A Google Cloud partner with a Specialization indicates the strongest signal of proficiency and experience with Google Cloud. These organisations undergo a rigorous technical assessment, employ certified experts, demonstrate customer success, and have a business plan to invest in their area of Specialization.


When you see a Google Cloud partner with a Specialisation, it indicates where they have demonstrated customer success by product, workload, and/or industry based on a defined set of requirements.
