DAHON Available via Amazon for Accessible Orders Online
Olney, Illinois, June 17th, 2020 – DAHON, the world’s largest manufacturer of folding bicycles and pioneer in green mobility, has started sales of selected models of their successful folding bikes on Amazon.com, Inc. As part of the company’s commitment to digital transformation, DAHON has launched sales on the e-commerce platform offering models including the DAHON Dream D6, the Mariner D8, the SUV D6, the Vitesse i7, and selected accessories.
DAHON remains the world leader in folding bikes and continues to work tirelessly to provide innovative green solutions in urban transport for everyone. With the option of purchasing a DAHON folding bike from the largest online marketplace, DAHON aims to boost digital sales and provide hassle-free delivery to DAHON users across the globe. From June 2020, purchases on Amazon had been available and standard shipping is free to several countries worldwide. Faster delivery is available for an additional fee, based on the chosen country. Customers can be assured that bicycles sold are genuine and authentic DAHON products provided the product name on the platform is supplemented by “by Dahon”.
The new sales funnel implies that DAHON’s customers may now buy directly from the world’s largest online marketplace. This initiative aims for further accessibility and comfort of delivery to valued customers through a well-known distribution channel. Throughout the Coronavirus epidemic, the importance of e-commerce has been revealed in increased online sales of DAHON products in China, with a reported increase of 70% in April and May. Moreover, the global bicycle market has seen an upward trend with the result of many dealers being short on stock. In the long run, DAHON aims to provide their bikes with an active and healthy way of transport while applying social distancing rules.
“The restructuring of DAHON’s distribution chain bolsters DAHON’s efforts in developing an efficient global strategy that benefits customers as well as ensuring continued success in the bicycle industry as leaders in green transportation and preventing the spread of COVID-19”, the company said.
Starting off as an online book shop, Amazon’s presence as a brick-and-mortar retailer has increased significantly within the last years, resulting in a wide range of goods being sold today including sporting goods and vehicles. During the COVID-19 crisis, the online retailer Amazon has seen a drastic sales increase, hiring an additional 175,000 staff members to tackle the growing demand for orders.
