E-commerce rising constantly

In 2011, the Dutch home market for internet shopping was 10 billion Euro = 9-10 %of the total retail sales Compared to 2.8 per cent in 2005

Clothes & shoes: 40-50 % (NL) – Every second pair of shoes is bought over internet

Home delivery

Even vegetables and food are increasingly sold via the internet – (yearly growth rate in Germany: 24,5%; regular online sales: 20,5%)

In Germany 750 mio packages are delivered each year – ever third one – 250 mio – are sent back

1. Favourable framework conditions and policies set by city administrations.

2. Awareness of customers for innovative and green delivery options

 

A great chance for Cyclelogistics

WHAT IS NEEDED TO REALIZE THIS CHANCE?

• Vehicle-based restrictions, e.g. types, sizes, weights, etc.

• Zone-based restrictions, e.g. zones for certain vehicles

• Time-based restrictions, e.g. time windows for delivery,

• Access charges based on specific times or environmental circumstances

Municipalities need to act with regulations

Municipalities need to act with promotion

Awareness of customers and end users

• Pack stations (DHL, bento box, …)

• On demand courier services (myways, uber,…)

• Roam delivery services (Volvo)

• Same day delivery platforms (Tiramizoo)

•

Thank you for your attention!
