Benefits of e-bikes/e-cargo bikes for business

With the imminent introduction of low emission zones across the UK this is a perfect time for companies and individuals to re-assess their transport and logistical requirements. A recent ‘last mile‘ report concluded that an e-cargo bike was faster, cleaner and caused less congestion.

How can a cargo bike benefit my business

  • For distances up to 9km a cargo bike is the fastest mode of transport
  • Lower cost of ownership
  • Can be parked anywhere without causing any additional traffic holdups on a busy street
  • Healthier and happier staff. Businesses who are already using bikes as part of their delivery operations, report that staff not only enjoy the chance to be out in the open air but are also getting fitter and healthier too.  The battery also makes cycling far easier and extends the range far beyond what would normally be feasible on a normal bike.
  • Simple to incorporate into your operations:  Driving an E-cargo bike is simple.  By incorporating them into your operations, you don’t have to worry about access to cars and vans for your team and they don’t even need a driving licence.
  • No more trips for petrol:  At the end of the day, simply plug the battery into the wall and you’re ready to go for the day ahead.  No need to factor in fuel stops during working hours.
  • Using cargo bikes will boost your company’s green credentials. If your business targets customers that value sustainability, you will increase your appeal, stand out better from the crowd and build a more powerful brand by choosing a climate-friendly, bike-based delivery method.
