Amidst global shifts, disruptions in supply chains, and a renewed focus on environmental responsibility, many bicycle industry leaders are reevaluating their reliance on overseas production sites. In the midst of these shifts, Poland is positioning itself as an increasingly attractive hub for investment and manufacturing. Numerous success stories reveal that, from family-established ventures to innovative startups, Polish companies are making significant strides, establishing a strong presence both at home and throughout Europe.
During the pandemic sales of electric bikes are up to 800 percent.
The pandemic caused many Poles to switch to bicycles. Over 40 percent people choose a two-wheeler instead of other means of transport, and every fifth cyclist currently rides more than a year ago – according to the “Bicycle Revolution” study. Almost half of them did not give up driving even in winter. The market is driven in particular by the rapidly growing sales of electric bicycles. The YouGov survey shows that every fourth Pole would like to own an electric bicycle. During the prevailing restrictions, we are more and more willing to buy them online. Centrumrowerowe.pl recorded an increase in e-bike sales by 786% in 2020.
