The company's full scope of solutions provides customers with everything they need to electrify, including proven electric vehicles, smart delivery tools & reusable packaging, subscription access, service & maintenance, energy infrastructure & charging management, telematics & fleet management software, and even driver-focused solutions that make delivery jobs cool and fun again—all through one point of contact at B—ON. "B—ON is so much more than just a name—it is a modern, living brand that is never static and always moving, dynamically communicating with our audience and actively inviting them to BE ON the journey with us to a cleaner future," said Gernot Friedhuber, Chief Marketing and Sales Officer for the company. "We took brand creation way beyond just skin deep and designed our identity so that everything about us pulls the customer in to the center of a meaningful ecosystem for change." The new services will be provided via a combination of internal capabilities and external partnerships, including a key cooperation with global technology leader Hitachi Group, who will support critical charging and energy management functions for B—ON customers in Europe and Asia. Additionally, Hitachi's venture capital arm, Hitachi Ventures, has come on board as one of B—ON's major investment partners. "Acquiring StreetScooter earlier this year gave us a great head start, providing the vehicle piece of our complete electrification solution," says Stefan Krause, CEO and Chairman of B—ON. "And now, we're very excited and honored to be able to bring on a partner like Hitachi to support the service piece of our plan. We feel this entire holistic solution is the key that will finally open the door for fleet owners to make this change for good."
