For many years, the industry has lacked the data to manage the supply chain efficiently. This information gap at the purchasing level can now be solved by confidentially sharing essential information on topics like new incoming order levels, inventory levels and your own purchasing levels. Market research agency IFH Cologne will publish the key results and an assessment of the industry’s situation next month.
GBPI puts focus on the impact of the tariffs
In this second survey of the Global Bicycle Purchasing Index, the spotlight is on tariffs. For many stakeholders across the supply chain, tariff-related trade barriers are becoming increasingly important. This is especially related to production, sourcing and strategic partnerships. This survey therefore examines not only how existing tariffs are currently influencing purchasing decisions, but also what developments industry experts expect in the future.
With this additional focus, the GBPI provides even deeper insights into global market dynamics — offering international procurement professionals a valuable benchmark for decision-making in the fast-changing bicycle and micromobility sector.

This short survey (taking approximately 3-5 minutes) is part of a joint initiative by Bike Europe, Eurobike and IFH Cologne. We kindly invite all industry peers, including product managers, supply chain managers, purchase managers and all other decision makers in the industry, to participate in the survey.
