ANTRIC

E-bike or truck? The ANTRIC ONE cargo bike is both. It can transport removable containers with cargo and, as a four-wheeler with full suspension, it is the most robust vehicle of its kind. The cargo bike travels in car-free inner cities with zero emissions to deliver parcels and goods. In addition to the cargo bike, ANTRIC offers advice and service for bicycle logistics

Moritz, what are the advantages of a start-up?
In my opinion, a start-up has countless advantages, but also some disadvantages. For me, the biggest advantage is that with ANTRIC I can realise my own visions and do my bit for an ecological future.

What were the main hurdles in the start-up process?
Since our venture is very complex and we therefore need a large team to implement it, our biggest hurdle at the moment is financing our company until it is ready to go into production.

Do you have any tips for you fellow founders?
It’s always a good idea to take advantage of the numerous opportunities in the Ruhr region for founders to network, get feedback on their own business ideas and acquire knowledge. The Senkrechtstarter competition, the Startup.Innolab incubator and the WORLDFACTORY are just three of the many options in the region.
