Behind the scenes, Citrus-Lime is supporting the shops that support the riders by giving cycle retailers the tools they need to succeed in a fast-moving, competitive market.
Although local bike shops are filled with passionate people who live and breathe cycling, keeping up with modern retail demands isn’t easy. Stock management, online sales,workshopbookings and customer expectations can be a lot to handle without the right systems. Unfortunately, too many good shops struggle because they don’t have the tools to match their ambitions.
Cloud POS, Citrus-Lime’s flagship product, empowers bike shops to be more efficient with tools that free up resources so retailers spend less time on admin and more time with customers.
“We don’t just provide software,” says James Steel, Director at Citrus-Lime. “We partner withcycle retailersto help them streamline operations, increase visibility and stay competitive, both online and on the High Street.”

Comprising Point of Sale, stock management and integratedecommerce, Cloud POS helps bike shops sell more effectively. It allows retailers to manage stock accurately with real-time visibility and easily handle workshop bookings to deliver better customer service, faster.
“Independent bike shops offer something that can’t be replicated online; genuine expertise, trust and face-to-face service,” continues James. “Our mission is to give them the tools they need to operate at their best so they can continue doing what they love, connecting people to the joy of riding.
“Local Bike Shop Dayisn’t just about celebrating great service, it’s about recognising the role independent bike dealers play in building stronger, healthier and more connected communities. We’re proud to play a small part in them doing exactly that.”
