The number of electric vehicles worldwide is on the rise, which creates a natural demand for EV charging solutions; in other words, the more EVs on the roads, the bigger the EV charging demand.
This alone represents a unique opportunity for retailers as we expect EV drivers to shop where they can charge their vehicles.
ELEVATE YOUR CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE
Equipping your retail store with EV charging services will significantly affect your business. On one hand, providing a service that’s high in demand will increase your established customers’ loyalty. On the other, it will attract a whole new clientele of EV drivers who will likely shop at your location while charging their batteries. In both cases, you’ll be creating new revenue streams.
BUILD YOUR OWN EV CHARGING BUSINESS
EV charging is a natural value-added service for retail stores as part of their clientele is or will soon be driving EVs.
Many retail businesses also own large parking areas, making it easier to build and provide EV charging services.
Retail chains like IKEA or Lidl are already installing EV charging stations at their store locations to develop customer loyalty and secure new sources of revenue. Join them and become an e-mobility forerunner!
