Electric bike manufacturer, Zoomo, has announced a partnership with online food delivery company, Uber Eats.
The new partnership, which will see high-performance e-mopeds added to Zoomo’s product line, aims to follow Uber’s commitment to making 100% of its deliveries in major European cities emission-free by the end of 2030, with the rest of the world to follow by 2040.
Uber Eats couriers in London will be eligible for a discount on the rental cost of e-mopeds during the initial sign-up period, with plans starting at 149 GBP a month (including insurance).
Nicolas de Juniac, UK General Manager at Zoomo, said:We admire Uber’s commitments to reduce the carbon footprint of food delivery trips. By joining forces with Uber Eats to enhance courier access to E-mopeds, we're not only taking significant strides toward a greener delivery landscape but also setting the stage for a more sustainable and efficient industry - and this is just the beginning.
We're excited to work closely with Uber Eats, growing our partnership and leading the charge toward a brighter, eco-conscious future, all while empowering valued couriers. It's a win-win-win partnership: for the environment, for our riders, and for Zoomo.
This partnership is expected to reduce the number of petrol vehicles on the road in London, whilst simultaneously supporting Zoomo’s mission to transition urban miles to light electric vehicles (LEVs).
Matthew Price, Uber Eats General Manager of UK, Ireland and Northern Europe Uber Eats, said:I am delighted to be expanding our partnership with Zoomo to offer high-performance e-Mopeds to couriers in London. It is our goal to be emission-free in London by 2030 and globally by 2040, and with this partnership we are moving towards that goal.
