This means that QSRs that embrace investing in electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure stand to gain a competitive edge in the evolving retail landscape. In this new blog, Dyna Boen, Swati G., and Kim Pesiri LeConey explore the retail brands leading the way in EV charging and the unique opportunity for QSRs to get people back into the restaurant while their EV powers up.

If you are a restaurant chain and you don't have EV Chargers in your parking lot then you might miss out of $200.000/month. 😱 Here is why 👇 EV Sales are booming, EV Charging is not. 👉 Since beginning of 2023 EV Sales have increased 140%. 💪 👉 Same period the number of EV Chargers grew 22% 😞 This means that there is a lot of EV Drivers out there badly in need of charging ⚡ This is an opportunity for all restaurants in North America. 💰 IF you install the charger, the drivers will follow. While their car is charging electrons ⚡ the humans will charge up in your restaurant. 🍔 I just ran the numbers on a conservative business case for a restaurant chain with 700 locations that will put in 5 level 2 chargers per locations. Result? 👉 $231,525 increased revenue per month from selling electricity 🤑 Add on top the cross-promotions, filling up their restaurants at low-peak times, getting access to new users, grants from the government that lowers the risc of investment and you have an incredible business case. 💰 Curious if Monta can do the same for you? Send me a DM or email(rogl@monta.com) and let's go through the numbers together. 😊 Worst case is you learn something about EV Charging, best case it can be a game changer for your restaurant chain. 💡 PS. If you know someone operating Restaurants then please help them not missing out by tagging them. #EVCharging #Innovation #MontaEV #FutureOfMobility
