Delivering organic, seasonal, locally produced fresh food with zero carbon emissions around the hilly town of Lausanne in Switzerland is a thriving business for local company, Plateforme Bio Lokal. Owners Charles-Louis Mourruau and Hansjörg Haas transport boxes on their cargo bikes, with fresh produce weighing more than 100 kgs, working 12-14 hours per day and cycling up to 80km per day. And it’s possible because they use maxon’s BIKEDRIVE on their bikes.
