In city centers where businesses are increasingly considering efficiency and sustainability, smart mobility is an important part of the solution. Switching to electric cargo bikes not only offers environmentally friendly, but is also a smart investment for companies looking to improve their logistics processes. Our extensive line-up of business bikes offers a smarter way to transport goods in a fast, flexible, and sustainable way. Bakery Wolf from Amsterdam has already taken this step. They use the Urban Arrow Cargo XL with Flightcase XL for their bread deliveries. Check out the photos and read the interview with Roos – manager of Wolf Bakery.
We started Bakery Wolf as a restaurant and bakery on the Wolvenstraat. Due to the high demand for our bakery products, both from our customers and catering establishments, we have now opened a spacious production location with a shop on the Rozengracht.
At the Wolvenstraat, guests can visit our restaurant for breakfast, lunch or drinks, or take away something tasty from our shop. In our shop on the Rozengracht, you can see our bakers at work and take home fresh bread, viennoiserie and coffee.
Transport used to be unnecessary, as production and sales took place at one fixed location. Back then, we had few catering customers because of our limited production capacity, and the customers we did have were often located nearby and collected their orders directly from the bakery. We did know right away that we needed an electric cargo bike to deliver our products to our customers very efficiently.

Besides the cargo bike, we also use a courier service for larger orders. We make several trips between Wolf’s two locations every day, when products are almost sold out, for example. In addition, we can deliver small orders to restaurants nearby directly ourselves, without standing in traffic jams or looking for a loading and unloading spot. It gives us enormous flexibility and can also help our customers out last-minute.
The cargo bike comes in especially handy because our locations are right in the centre of Amsterdam, on the canals. With a cargo bike, we are maneuverable, much faster than a car and also advertise because of the nicely stickered cargo box.
We chose the Urban Arrow Cargo XL with Flightcase because it has enough space to transport our products, but is still easy for all our employees to ride. In addition, we think it is a very sturdy and high-quality bike, which also looks very stylish.
The biggest advantages are: agile and faster than a car, saving courier rides, being able to offer last-minute deliveries to our customers,and all staff can use it. It allows us to be at our other location within 5 minutes, to replenish sold-out croissants, for example!
We would definitely recommend this bike to other entrepreneurial bakeries, because it just saves us a huge amount of time, money and stress. It allows us to be even more flexible for our customers and therefore provide the great service and quality that Bakery Wolf stands for!
