Insights
The Brazilian distributor's visit and subsequent decision to consolidate its manufacturing activities with LOBO EV is a significant step for both parties. This transition towards centralized manufacturing indicates a strong trust in LOBO’s production quality and reliability. By consolidating manufacturing, the dealer can reduce transaction costs and achieve better consistency in product quality, which are critical factors in the competitive electric mobility market. For LOBO, this move could result in a steady revenue stream and higher production volumes, potentially improving economies of scale.
From a broader market perspective, the electric mobility sector is experiencing substantial growth. The global market for e-bikes, e-trikes and e-scooters is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 6.6% from 2023 to 2028, reflecting the increasing demand for sustainable transportation options. This partnership positions LOBO to better capitalize on this trend, especially in the Latin American market, where they have been gaining traction.
