Mike Honiball — Snapshot, Highlights and Citation

Recognition Citation

Mike Honiball is recognized in the AssetFin100 Africa 2026 for directing Daimler Truck Financial Services South Africa as finance became more closely linked to commercial-vehicle sales, dealer inventory and the certified used-truck market. The company provides retail and corporate finance, wholesale dealer funding and structured solutions across the Daimler Truck network. Dedicated finance support at TruckStore’s West Rand facility extended that capability into the later stages of a truck’s working life.
