Description:
An Austrian SME is manufacturing electric two-wheelers in the categories L1e to L3e (pictures of prototypes are attached). The electric vehicles are designed for B2B use e.g. postal services or delivery companies. As producing capacities will increase over the next years the company is looking for additional business partners to provide the following spare parts for a long-term supply agreement:
- shock absorbers
- lights
- tires/wheels
- footrests
- grips
- locks
- fenders
The produced quantity of electric vehicles will be, according to the underlying business case of this Austrian SME, 300 pieces in 2021 and will be increasing in the following years. In 2022 it is estimated to be able to produce 1500 to 2000 pieces and in 2023 the production quantity will be raised to 3000-5000 pieces.
The CEOs of the company also work closely with a company in Spain but due to their increase in production capacity they are looking for additional suppliers across Europe.
It is very important to this Austrian SME that the products are being manufactured in Europe to keep CO2 emmissions as low as possible.
As sustainability is part of this Austrian SMEs corporate identity (electric vehicles) imported products will only be accepted if no corresponding product manufactured in the EU is available for supply.
Type (e.g. company, R&D institution…), field of industry and Role of Partner Sought:
Future business partners should be European producers or suppliers of spare parts for single-lane e-mobility vehicles and be able to proof the European origin of the parts.
Technical Specification or Expertise Sought:
The partner should be capable to provide steady supply and possible production. Additionally, a concern for quality and EU certification for electric vehicle parts (e.g. E4 for lights) are requested.
