Marc Burkhardt joins QWIC as German Sales Representative

Fast-growing Dutch premium design e-bike manufacturer QWIC have announce the addition of a new team member, Marc Burkhardt. As of April 3rd, Marc starts as the new Sales Representative for the Western part of Germany.

The arrival of Burkhardt, a highly experienced sales professional with over 30 years of sales experience, including over 20 years of experience in the specialist consumer technology retailing, brings a wealth of experience to the QWIC team which now oversees more than 750 sales and service points in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and Austria.

Marc Burkhardt, QWIC Sales Manager Germany, profile pictureMarc Burkhardt: “I am excited to join the QWIC family and promote the brand’s e-bikes to existing and new dealers. QWIC is an exciting and innovative company, and I am looking forward to working with my new colleagues to drive the growth of the brand.”

His focus will be on continuing the good cooperation with the existing dealers and also expanding the dealer network, and on securing and expanding the brand positioning in his sales territory.

In 2022 QWIC carried out research which found that its 3,318 sampled eBike riders demonstrated that they are cycling, on average, around 55km every week more than they had previously.

Better still, those rides are coming at the expense of transport modes less efficient for urban journeys. With motivations ranging health (for which eBikes have been found to deliver plenty of benefits) and more outdoor time, to journeys just being more fun, QWIK users were averaging 88km per week, taking on journeys that would almost certainly have been done another way previously.
