Court-e-Bike, by Mohammed Mukhtar, Glasgow which claims to be Glasgow\u2019s first fully integrated e-cargo bike delivery service, has revealed it has saved nearly five tons of carbon from vans and cars since launching its zero-emissions service in Pollokshields last year.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Glasgow, United Kingdom, 16th Mar 2023, <\/strong>King NewsWire<\/strong><\/a> \u2013<\/strong> The project\u2019s target is to save an estimated 100 tons of carbon over the next five years to help improve Glasgow\u2019s air quality. Currently applying for an award from SP Energy Networks\u2019 Green Economy Fund to purchase more e-cargo bikes in August 2023.<\/p>\n

The Glasgow based innovator Mohammed Mukhtar has now made deliveries to over 60 stores and travelled more than 100km.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been cycling forever.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since the age of 5 or 6, he\u2019s loved it. It\u2019s always been his chosen way to get around rather than driving or on public transport and now it\u2019s his livelihood.<\/p>\n

Court-e-Bike said its e-cargo bikes help reduce traffic and pollution issues in Glasgow by reducing the number of delivery vehicles on the streets and helping the city on its journey to become the UK\u2019s first Net Zero city.<\/p>\n

Mukhtar from Pollokshields, Glasgow had been thinking about setting up an e-cargo bike delivery service for quite some time, toying with the idea for a few years before the pandemic and he just couldn\u2019t get it out of his head.<\/p>\n

When Mohammed Mukhtar <\/strong><\/a>hit 25 in October just there, he thought it\u2019s now or never, because he\u2019d just get too comfortable \u2013 be too afraid to give up a steady income. He put together a business plan, and with the support of his local community in Pollokshields, Glasgow, he decided to go for it and set up Court-e-Bike Deliveries.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I wish I\u2019d done it sooner to be honest, but the resources I needed to match my vision for the business also weren\u2019t available until that moment, so it all just seemed to come together at the right time. Running Court-e-Bike allows me to build a business around my life and around my city \u2013 Glasgow. Before, I was leaving the house at 6am and I wasn\u2019t back until after 6pm, and I just felt I wanted to be more involved in my family, and community. The business is growing slowly and steadily, and I have some really brilliant, forward-thinking clients.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mukhtar\u2019s company delivers fine wine and expensive whiskies, delicate flowers and artworks, medicines, and sensitive electronic equipment.<\/p>\n

I can pretty much deliver anything although I draw the line at wedding cakes, and Glasgow sheriff court documents<\/a>, police documents, stuff like that \u2013 for now at least. We\u2019ve had people asking us to deliver drugs like cocaine for them, but I\u2019m proud to say that\u2019s never going to happen. I don\u2019t have a wish to be breaking the law and get arrested. All it takes is a little bit more thought and a change of your approach to logistics, which we\u2019re here to help with.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mukhtar from Glasgow, is launching a website based service, where customers can just order from selected places that are signed up for this service.<\/p>\n

The infrastructure needed to run this website is quite extensive, but we\u2019ve managed to secure investment with the help of the local community within Glasgow, so we should be up and running very soon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With big changes coming to Glasgow like low emissions zones<\/a> and traffic-controlled areas and its becoming expensive to run a BMW, the small changes needed to use deliveries will be nothing compared to the benefit.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mukhtar can deliver a maximum load of 100kg, which is equivalent to 85 bottles of wine or a giant Panda bear or a baby elephant.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve not actually transported any animals yet, but hey, you never know. If a veterinary centre needs my help, I\u2019ll be there.<\/p>\n

Glasgow is now more than a year post-COP 26<\/a> and it would be great to see more businesses in our city adopt a sustainable approach to deliveries.<\/p>\n

Mohammed Mukhtar, 25 from Glasgow also feels proud that he\u2019s trying to make a difference, taking responsibility, not just for himself, but showing that there is another way of delivering goods which has a positive impact on our environment and benefits our local community.\u00a0<\/p>\n

There\u2019s always a way, you know? If we can talk, we can find a way.<\/p>\n
