The year in review
2023 in a wrap.
As the year draws to a close, it's the perfect time to look back on our achievements in 2023.
april 2023: legendre
It's been a busy year for Voltaire. In April, we launched our first high-frame model: the Legendre. Conceived and developed for dynamic workers who want to criss-cross the city with inimitable style, this bike was the perfect addition to our range.
april 2023: national poster campaign
The momentum continued with our very first poster campaign. From posters in the Paris metro to those in the streets of France's 10 biggest cities, we've had the pleasure of seeing you discover or re-discover our brand. We're also delighted to see our community growing by the day, especially on our social networks.
may 2023: opening of the voltaire boutique
On May 10, we inaugurated our first boutique. Located in the heart of the Marais district, we welcomed you to a warm and inviting space at 21 Rue de Rivoli. A showcase in our image, where you can discover our different models, and take care of your two-wheeler.
may 2023: octobre éditions x voltaire
We had the opportunity to collaborate with Octobre Éditions, Sezane's masculine counterpart, by organizing cycle repair workshops. These afternoons took place in Octobre's iconic boutique, Rue Saint Fiacre.
June and July 2023: Eurobike and prodays trade fairs
June 21, 2023 marked the opening of the Eurobike trade show in Frankfurt. It was an opportunity for Voltaire to show off its models to a large number of professionals, and to highlight our new Legendre bike. A few days later, we also took part in the Prodays show in Paris.
September 2023: launch in South Korea
In 2023, we also had the opportunity to expand Voltaire beyond France and Europe. We opened our first pop-up store on the Asian continent, in Seoul. We were delighted to be able to bring Voltaire to Korea!
october 2023: a growing community
2023 was also a year in which we succeeded in building a bigger community on social networks, particularly on Instagram. During this year, we became the second most followed French electric bike brand on social networks. We're delighted to share this with you, and we thank you for it!
november 2023: international growth
Since November 2023, Voltaire has extended its reach beyond France into 12 countries. These include Denmark, Belgium, Italy, Germany and many others... We are delighted to work with a total of over 150 partners who support us on a daily basis.
december 2023: a record year-end
We end the year with a record: never before have our partners sold so many Voltaires in a single month! Combined with a superb performance from our boutique on rue de Rivoli, the month of December saw us end the year with growth of almost +50%!
