OP dealers switch onto EV charging stations

New business opportunity for schools and SMEs
With many traditional categories in decline, office supplies resellers are looking for ways to diversify their product offerings.
In the US, some dealers are exploring more unconventional opportunities—such as electric vehicle (EV) charging stations.
With the Trump administration pulling back on EV charging infrastructure funding, ACDI Energy services - widely known in the industry for its print management solutions – has expanded its services to offer EV charging facilities to the OP dealer channel and its education and small business customer base.
The federal funding was primarily aimed at massive highway corridor projects, not the local ‘level 2’ chargers for schools, businesses, and workplaces that ACDI focuses on.
With more electric vehicles hitting the roads each year, the demand for workplace and public charging continues to grow across the US.
ACDI believes office equipment dealers are well-positioned to capitalise on the trend, according to Industry Analysts Inc.
