What Lusomotos does
Lusomotos – Veículos e Acessórios, S.A. is a privately held Portuguese B2B distribution company founded in 1987 and headquartered in Aguim, Anadia. The company operates two business areas: (i) Motociclismo, distributing motorcycle parts and accessories across more than 80 international brands including helmets (SUOMY, SHARK, BEON), protective gear (LEATT), luggage (KAPPA), lubricants (IPONE), batteries (BS Battery), tires (Bridgestone, WDT), brakes (SBS), suspensions (YSS), and electric two-wheelers (YADEA, ARENA, Voltguard); and (ii) Floresta e Jardim, holding exclusive Portugal distribution rights for Oleo-Mac, EFCO, and Bertolini (all EMAK Group brands), plus Agritec and Wiper robotic lawn mowers.
The company's core technology is its distribution and logistics infrastructure, anchored by a 3,637 m² covered warehouse completed in 2021, a dedicated B2B ordering portal (http://62.28.180.46:90/front/) for registered agents, and sub-brand websites such as yadea.pt. Lusomotos does not sell directly to consumers; revenue is generated through wholesale distribution to a network of agents covering Continental Portugal and the Islands, with B2B pricing handled through the portal on a transactional basis.
Lusomotos serves three primary segments: motorcycle enthusiasts and riders (helmets, gear, parts), forest and garden professionals (chainsaws, brushcutters, robotic mowers, specialty agricultural equipment), and its B2B agent/reseller network. The company is led by founder-CEO António Saavedra Pinto, has between 11 and 50 employees, has held PME Líder status continuously since 2009 and PME Excelência multiple times, and received EFQM Committed to Excellence recognition in 2020.

Lusomotos competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Stiga: Stiga is a Swedish/European manufacturer of garden equipment including robotic mowers, ride-on mowers, and hand-held tools. A broad incumbent in the same forest/garden category where Lusomotos distributes Oleo-Mac, EFCO, Bertolini, and Wiper.
- STIHL: STIHL is a German global manufacturer of chainsaws and outdoor power equipment with its own national distributor networks in each market. Broad incumbent in the same forestry and garden category as Lusomotos's exclusive brands, with significant overlap in professional and consumer segments.
- EMAK Group: EMAK Group is the Italian manufacturer of Oleo-Mac, EFCO, and Bertolini — three brands for which Lusomotos holds exclusive Portugal distribution rights. EMAK is a broad incumbent in the outdoor power equipment industry and the key principal for Lusomotos's forest and garden business.
- Husqvarna Forest & Garden: Husqvarna is a Swedish global manufacturer of professional forestry, garden, and outdoor power equipment with its own distribution network. A broad incumbent competitor to the brands Lusomotos distributes (Oleo-Mac, EFCO), though operating with proprietary products rather than as a multi-brand distributor.
Direct peers
- Touratech: Touratech is a German manufacturer and distributor of premium motorcycle accessories, luggage, and adventure gear with global distribution. Comparable to Lusomotos in the motorcycle accessories and riding gear category, though more vertically integrated with proprietary products.
- KRAMP: KRAMP is a large European B2B distributor of parts, accessories, and workshop supplies for agricultural, forestry, and outdoor power equipment. Direct analogue of Lusomotos's forest and garden equipment distribution business, though serving multiple sectors and geographies.
- AgriEuro: AgriEuro is an Italian e-commerce and distribution platform for agricultural, forestry, and garden equipment, supplying both professionals and consumers. Comparable to Lusomotos in the forest and garden equipment category and multi-brand distribution model.
- Motodis: Motodis is a French B2B distributor of motorcycle spare parts, accessories, and equipment, selling through a network of professional resellers. Direct analogue of Lusomotos in model and customer segment, focused on a single European country market.
- BIHR: BIHR is one of Europe's largest distributors of motorcycle parts, accessories, and riding gear, supplying professional resellers across multiple countries. Highly comparable to Lusomotos in business model (B2B multi-brand motorcycle aftermarket distributor) and customer base (SMB resellers), though operating at greater geographic scale.
Regional players
- Norauto Portugal: Norauto is a major French-origin auto parts, accessories, and service retailer operating in Portugal with multi-category product lines including motorcycle accessories and lubricants. Comparable in overlapping category coverage and shared Portuguese market, but a retail-led model rather than Lusomotos's pure B2B agent distribution.
