Research Report
We mapped the digital footprint of every driving school in Mauritius.
After auditing 57 schools across all regions, an interesting pattern is starting to emerge. The issue is not a shortage of driving schools. The issue is digital structure.

What we're seeing
The strongest online representation sits with established schools that have invested in a dedicated website and a .mu domain. The biggest gap appears in independent instructors and smaller regional schools — many are running their entire business off a Facebook page or word of mouth. That gap is the opportunity. Not because there is a shortage of driving schools, but because there is a growing need for better digital structure that helps learners find the right school, and helps schools build trust and visibility online.
