[B2B] Wholesale E-Bikes 2026: Why Factory Direct Sourcing Doubles Your Profit
The Core Problem: In 2026, sourcing e-bikes from US-based distributors leaves dealers with slim margins (15-20%) due to tiered middleman markups.
The Solution: Sourcing Factory Direct from Poleejiek allows you to bypass importers and increase your net margin to 35%-50%. We solve the logistics headache with our DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) shipping service, meaning we handle all customs and tariffs. You get factory prices with domestic-level convenience, starting at a Low MOQ of 10 units.
The Dealer's Dilemma: Why Margins Are Shrinking
The electric bike market in 2026 is brutally competitive. With e-commerce giants and Amazon sellers driving retail prices down, brick-and-mortar bike shops and independent dealers are feeling the squeeze. If you are still sourcing your inventory from "Tier 2" US distributors, you are essentially paying a "convenience tax" that eats up your profit.
Traditionally, the supply chain looks like this:
Factory (China) → Exporter → US Importer → Regional Distributor → YOU → Customer.
Every hand that touches the box adds 10-15% to the cost. By the time the bike hits your showroom floor, your cost basis is so high that you cannot compete on price without sacrificing your livelihood.
The Math: Middleman vs. Factory Direct
At Poleejiek, we operate on a "Factory-to-Dealer" model. We cut out the exporter, importer, and regional distributor.
Let's look at a real-world profit model for a standard 750W Folding E-bike (retailing at $1,400):
| Cost Breakdown | Scenario A: Buying from US Distributor | Scenario B: Buying Factory Direct (Poleejiek) |
|---|---|---|
| Wholesale Cost | $1,100 / unit | $800 / unit (MOQ 10) |
| Shipping & Tax | Included (Domestic Ground) | +$100 (DDP Shipping & Duty) |
| Total Landed Cost | $1,100 | $900 |
| Retail Price (MSRP) | $1,400 | $1,400 |
| NET PROFIT | $300 (21% Margin) | $500 (35.7% Margin) |
The Conclusion: On a small pallet order of just 10 bikes, switching to factory direct puts an extra $2,000 of pure profit in your business account.
