LAGUNA HILLS, Calif. (BRAIN) – Bicycle Retailer & Industry News and PeopleForBikes are collecting updates for the 2016 Industry Directory. According to a recent survey of retailers, more than 76 percent of respondents will use the 2016 Industry Directory, so make sure to submit or update your organization’s listing by Nov. 6, 2015.
The Industry Directory is the most complete listing of more than 2,200 North American organizations serving the bicycle industry and its retailers. It will be mailed to BRAIN subscribers polybagged with the January 1 issue. The 2016 Industry Directory will again feature a category index and include a dedicated section for distributors and their lines. In response to retailers’ feedback, the index will be reorganized and include two new categories: Point of Sales Systems and Mechanic/Technician Training.
Inclusion in the Directory is free, but companies are responsible for supplying updates and additions no later than Nov. 6, 2015. For anyone listed in the 2015 Industry Directory, a request for verification will be emailed directly to your organization. Last year, 30 percent of the industry responded to the listing update survey; make sure your organization’s information is accurate and be sure to respond this year!
For all new directory listings, fill out this online form to be included.
