At the Perishable Logistics Africa 2025 conference, Christiaan Pleijsier, General Manager of eBee.africa, delivered a presentation that highlighted the transformative impact of eBee’s e-bicycles on Africa’s flower and perishable goods sectors. These locally assembled, 100% electric bikes are not just a means of transport; they are a catalyst for sustainable change, offering a cleaner, faster, and more efficient solution for last-mile deliveries.
The eBee e-bicycles are designed to cut operational costs significantly while reducing the carbon footprint of logistics operations. By leveraging electric power, these bikes eliminate the need for traditional fuel, leading to lower emissions and a more environmentally friendly approach to transportation. Moreover, the bikes’ efficiency in last-mile delivery enhances the overall logistics process, ensuring that perishable goods, such as flowers, reach their destinations quickly and in optimal condition.
Beyond environmental benefits, eBee’s e-bicycles are creating job opportunities across Africa. The local assembly of these bikes supports the growth of the manufacturing sector, while the demand for skilled operators and maintenance technicians opens up new career paths. As eBee continues to expand its reach, it is reshaping the logistics landscape, making transportation more accessible and sustainable for communities and businesses alike.
