Motocaddy, the world’s top-selling brand of electric trolleys, is rolling out an extensive supply of hi-tech models from its fully stocked US base in California in response to growing demand from golfers who want to walk the golf course rather than rely on carts.

Motocaddy’s current range includes the M7 REMOTE hands-free model and the M5 GPS DHC with touchscreen display – rated the Most Wanted Electric Cart and Best Smart Cart respectively by MyGolfSpy in 2020Also proving popular with American golfers is the feature-packed M1 DHC electric cart with downhill speed control, USB device charging and an electronic parking brake.

Motocaddy offers matching golf bags designed expressly to fit on each of the carts – including the 100% waterproof Dry-Series and premium Pro-Series lines, to a HydroFLEX hybrid bag that offers a carry option if needed. As the #1 push cart brand in the UK, it also offers the lightweight CUBE and Z1 models packed with popular features.

Motocaddy’s US President Roger Teat has expanded his US sales team to meet the growing demand for the company’s range of power trolleys

To support sales nationwide, Motocaddy has invested in a high-profile ‘Enjoy the Walk’ advertising campaign across popular US-based websites such as MyGolfSpy, GolfWRX and Hackers Paradise. It’s also set up a 12-man sales team to cover golf facilities in California, New York, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ohio, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia and Florida, with further territories on the way.

The sales team is led by Roger Teat, President of the Motocaddy’s US Division, and supported by Inside Sales and Service Manager Mike Samoles, plus Customer Service Representative Jake Tilley. They operate from a newly-opened showroom, warehouse and offices in Carlsbad, while a National Service Centre has been established in Chicago, Illinois.

“We’ve seen a high level of interest in the product line from PGA professionals around the country, especially those looking to set up rental fleets of the electric walking carts to mirror the revenue streams enjoyed by leading European courses,” said Teat. “The opportunity to grow the electric walking cart market in the U.S. is one that Motocaddy is determined to seize and we now have the stock and support system in place to do so.”
