Cargo Bike Sales in UK to Soar up to 60% with Incentives and New Infrastructure

July 25, 2021 - Both electric and regular cargo bike sales are forecast to soar up to 60% in the UK during the coming year with the support of government initiatives and new infrastructure reports The Guardian.

A reported 4,000 cargo bikes were sold in the UK last year, a drop in the bucket compared to Germany, where about 100,000 cargo bikes are sold every year, and France, where 50,000 are sold a year.

Boosted by various initiatives at local and national level to reduce carbon emissions and congestion, the Bicycle Association says sales will spike upward dramatically. Window cleaners, milk deliverers, beer purveyors, plumbers and DJs are all getting on their bikes as part of the two- and three-wheel revolution.

Perhaps one of the biggest and most visible shifts towards cargo bikes, however, could come in grocery delivery. James FitzGerald, co-founder of specialist logistics group E-cargobikes, says the company, which currently operates about 50 bikes in London carrying out several thousand deliveries a week for the Co-op and others, expects to have more than 1,500 bikes by April 2023.
