PENINGKATAN PENDAPATAN EKONOMI DAN MOBILITAS PEDAGANG MAKANAN MELALUI DESAIN GEROBAK SEPEDA LISTRIK

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) such as meatball and other food traders are one of the small businesses currently experiencing a decline in income due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. In addition, the barriers to food peddlers, such as using inappropriate carts and the limited mobility of food selling, have become an obstacle to increasing income after the post-pandemic period. This community service activity aims to recover and increase the revenue of food peddlers by expanding selling mobility to reach potential buyers directly. To achieve this goal, the activities are carried out by designing and manufacturing by combined food peddler cart with a bicycle driven by an electric motor. In this way, it can impact increasing energy efficiency and operational costs so that sales turnover can increase. The method of implementing this activity program is through direct field observations to see the selling activities of food peddlers, followed by a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) to obtain input regarding the constraints and expectations desired from these traders. The next step is to carry out the design and manufacture of electric bicycle carts. This activity was followed by business and financial management training using the Buku Warung application and registration for Gofood partners. The results of electric bicycle cart use by food peddlers, followed by an application of Buku Warung and Gofood services by food peddlers, showed an increase in income of around 50-60%.
