🚴 ♀️ Missions Implantions Pro Velo

Each location – composed of a workshop manager, bicycle mechanics, reception and project managers – carries out the following main missions:

• Reception and information for the general public at Pro Velo.

• Sale of new and used bicycles and accessories

• Mechanical workshop – repair for the general public.

• Management of a fleet of bicycles: maintenance, fleet renewal, external rentals, etc.

• Management and development of bicycle testing projects and services to companies, in collaboration with the other Walloon departments.

The establishment also has the particularity of having strong projects in the social and circular economy:

• A circular bicycle sales program (CycleCare+) that guarantees the trade-in of the bike for up to 9 years after purchase through a maintenance plan.

• In partnership with Step Métiers, as part of a socio-professional integration course in bicycle mechanics, we train in bicycle mechanics and then welcome trainees into our activities.

The team is made up of 7 people for the " service " part – 4 people for the workshop, 2 people for the reception/shop and 1 person for project management. In addition, the location serves as a basis for the development of training projects for cycling in schools, companies and adults for the general public. These are provided by a local team of educational officers (4 people for Liège).
