Press Release - Kona Distribution UK & Ireland
Mount Green Cycles is delighted to announce its new partnership as the exclusive distributor for Kona Bikes in the UK and Ireland.
About Mount Green
Established and Trusted
50 years in the business of sports distribution. Family run business at its heart.
Traditional Sales
Dedicated and passionate sales team, active in the sport & on the road.
Face to face customer interaction is a priority.
Modern Delivery
Using the latest software to enable live stock data, fast delivery & hassle free ordering.
"We believe in making the most of the wisdom that 50 years brings with it.
No matter what the industry, having a trusted, passionate Sales Rep walk into a shop will always be the best way to push a brand forward. It is too easy to get lazy and just send an email these days.
With that said, those not embracing the latest software, using AI to deliver information faster and more accurately to your customers will be left behind.
If someone reading this takes one thing away about Mount Green, I would want it to be that we represent a balance of old school values, and new ideas."
Scott Taylor - Managing Director
Taking Kona To A New High
35 years in the game, a true heritage brand from the rough & rugged Pacific North West needs no introduction.
Product aside, how can we elevate the brand for the Bike Dealer and Consumer in the UK & Ireland

Dedicated Support

Now, a dedicated team of 14 people, based in the UK, with a sole focus on UK & Ireland's unique needs.

Next Day Stock
It's 2024, we all expect Amazon Prime style next day delivery.

World First To Market
UK & Ireland customers demand the best, and they want it the fastest. With every new bike launch, we will be first in line for global stock with professional planning & paying for the fastest delivery option.

Get Out There
Meeting our end consumers in person is perhaps the best part of the job.
We are already committed to the Malverns Classic & National Cycling Show for 2024.
Stable Sales Force
The UK & Ireland Sales team for Kona remains exactly the same. The difference being they now have 10x more back up.
The new Distribution structure will bring in significant improvements without any service disruption.
Best of both worlds!
