LAND announced it is teaming up with Bloom, a Detroit-based aggregator and unified marketplace that provides operations-as-a-service to the light-duty electric vehicle (LEV) industry.
The strategic partnership is based on LAND’s vision: transforming mobile power through e-mobility and interchangeable batteries. With 20 global patents, LAND’s compact and connected CORE battery platform transports two- and four-wheeled vehicles, as well as boats and recreational vehicles, and provides a portable power grid.
As part of the new collaboration, LAND will be one of Bloom’s preferred electric battery suppliers, giving Bloom’s manufacturing partners the ability to integrate LAND’s latest battery technology into their e-motors. LAND will also join Bloom’s network of local and international partners who are on a mission to “secure the future” of the e-mobility industry through collaboration, shared resources and vertical integration, ensuring that transportation is economically resilient and environmentally responsible.
“LAND has built a smart, portable battery electric platform to power other businesses,” said Scott Colosimo, founder and CEO of LAND. “This partnership comes at an ideal time as the U.S. and industry seek standardized, interchangeable solutions for electric vehicles.”
Bloom is committed to building a strong ecosystem of US-based suppliers, with the goal of creating a healthy domestic supply chain that leads to efficiencies among electric mobility manufacturers and increased access to clean technology.
“The CORE battery allows companies to get to market faster by leveraging LAND’s battery expertise,” said Justin Cosmides, Bloom co-founder. “Land is an excellent addition to the ecosystem we are building, which will allow new brands to grow in a more efficient way. Economies of scale and shared resources are critical elements that mature markets rely on, and this partnership is a great step in that direction.”
Through this relationship, Land and Bloom expect the industry partners to gain multiple benefits, including lower production costs and operating in a flexible market.
