PowaKaddy, the world’s leading electric trolley manufacturer, continues to solidify its position as the frontrunner in the UK electric trolley market, with more than 50% market share in the first quarter of 2024.

According to Golf Datatech¹, PowaKaddy’s share of the total UK electric trolley market for Q1 2024 exceeded 52% by both units and value, marking an increase of over 2% compared to the same period in 2023.

The brand has experienced growth across all channels – with the On-Course (Green-grass) share surging by 3% to reach over 56% by volume, reflecting the brand’s strong performance and support from golfers and retail partners alike.

Furthermore, the UK’s best-selling trolleys in 2023; PowaKaddy’s CT6, FX3, and CT8 GPS, have retained the top-three positions in the market, commanding a 40% share of the total UK electric trolley market in Q1 2024.

Lee Brotherhood, Director of Golf at Olton GC, and TGI Golf Partner, commented: “We’ve been very impressed with the new 2024 PowaKaddy range, which is as complete a range as I’ve seen. PowaKaddy product continues to be best-in-class, which has really made our lives easier when talking to customers.

“Additionally, our new fleet of CT6 GPS rental trolleys is a further step forward for us. The introduction of the new GPS with the enhanced features has allowed us to provide an even better experience our customers and makes it easier for golfers to ‘try before you buy’.”

PowaKaddy Sales Director, Graeme Wigham, commented on the successful first quarter for the brand: “Whilst the first three months of 2024 have provided tough conditions for golf courses around the country, we have been very grateful for the ongoing support from our retail partners across the country. To both increase our market share and maintain our position as the UK’s best-selling trolley brand is testament to our commitment to supporting all of our retail partners.”

Will Urwin, Head Professional at Whitchurch Golf Club and Foremost Golf member, commented on PowaKaddy’s 2024 product range: “We’ve had a strong start to the year with PowaKaddy, highlighting the quality of the brand’s 2024 electric trolley range – which signifies another step forward in design and technology. The addition of Mag-Lok to the sleek new cart bag collection is notably innovative and user-friendly, and it has certainly contributed to the solid sell-through we’ve seen with PowaKaddy in Q1.”
