DSG Global (OTCQB: DSGT) is an emerging global technology company with interconnecting businesses in fast growing market sectors. With roots in the golf industry, the company specializes in golf fleet management and is moving quickly into road-ready electric vehicles for delivery in the third quarter of 2021.
In 2019, the company secured exclusive North America distribution rights for Jonway Automobile Co. road-ready electric vehicles (“EVs”). Jonway, based in Zhejiang, China, began manufacturing new vehicles s in 2003 and today produces Electric powered Cars, Trucks, Vans, SUV’s, and Scooters. Jonway vehicles are exported to more than 80 countries and are built to comply with U.S. safety and environmental standards.
These vehicles are being sold via DSG’s wholly owned subsidiary, Imperium Motor Company (“IMC”). The move into consumer vehicles capitalizes on the company’s strength in the selection and distribution of EVs, the ability to work with large manufacturers and in application of proprietary technology unique to DSG. DSG’s advanced fleet tracking can be integrated into Jonway EVs to offer a customized scalable and integrated solution to meet the needs of small businesses and large enterprises.
The Future is Electric
With decades of EV experience in golf, including distribution of highly advanced carts, DSG recognized the huge chasm between consumer interest in acquiring road ready EVs versus current EV models’ lack of availability and affordability. As such, the company focused on becoming a distribution and EV brand management company unencumbered by the manufacturing process. The manufacturers take responsibility for building vehicles to DSG’s specifications and fulfillment of regulatory and licensing requirements.
DSG has also established a distribution agreement with Skywell New Energy Automobile Group Ltd., an Asian-based EV manufacturer. Skywell will supply DSG with SUV’s, Passenger Vans, Cargo Vans, Commercial Vehicles and Buses that will be fully certified for use in the United States.
Brands
Imperium Motor Company (“IMC”) seeks to transform the way the world drives by making greener transportation available to everyone. IMC is an EV sales and marketing company that distributes directly to consumers and through third party distributors, offering a wide variety of affordable vehicles equipped for the North American market. The company’s emphasis is on great design, a green mindset, performance and functionality. Its vehicles include 26 models of high-speed, mid-speed and low-speed electric vehicles including cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, buses and scooters.
Vantage Tag Systems (“VTS”) is a global leader in the design, manufacture, and marketing of fleet management solutions for the golf industry. VTS has developed the TAG suite of products that represents the industry’s first completely modular fleet management solution. The company’s patented analytics, mobile touch screen GPS units and electric golf carts are sold around the world through a network of established distributors and partnerships with notable brands in fleet and equipment manufacture.

Market Outlook
The global EV market was valued at $273 billion in 2017, according to Fortune Business Insights, and is projected to exceed $987 billion by 2027, with a projected CAGR of 17.4 percent. The relative high manufacturing costs of EVs compared to gasoline-powered vehicles and the resulting higher sticker price to consumers are major obstacles to near term market adoption.
The global e-bike market is estimated to grow to $70 billion by 2027 from its current valuation of $41.1 billion. An estimated 130 million e-bikes are expected to be sold globally over the next two years. The U.S. imported approximately 600,000 e-bikes in 2020, according to the Light Electric Vehicle Association, and its analysts expect that number will grow substantially in 2021.
