NEW DELHI: Electric two-wheeler maker Ola Electric on Thursday announced that it will set 10,000 sales and service outlets by the end of 2025 as its aims to expand across smaller cities and towns including urban areas where EV penetration still remains low.
The company further said that it has on-boarded 625 partners under this initiative and plans to have 1,000 partners ahead of the festive season this year.
Currently, Ola Electric has approximately 800 company-owned stores, and will be having nearly 1,800 sales and service touch points with the network partner programme, ahead of the upcoming festive season.
“Our D2C model has been extremely successful in driving sustainable business growth. The Network Partner Program will further amplify the benefits of our D2C network as it requires limited capital investment from partners and can be scaled up really fast,” Ola Electric chairman and MD Bhavish Aggarwal said.
He further said that although the company-owned stores will be the anchors of the sales and service network, this programme will be a significant step in expanding the EV footprint deeper into the urban and rural markets.
“We will continue to expand and invest in our front-end network to accelerate EV adoption to #EndICEAge, and by the end of next year, will have 10,000 Network Partners across the country,” Aggarwal said.
