Last week, Cheelcare had the privilege of presenting our cutting-edge mobility solutions, Curio and Companion, at the Motion Expos in Calgary, Alberta. This event was particularly significant as Motion is the largest wheelchair dealer in Canada, boasting over 50 locations nationwide. The Motion expos drew an impressive audience of around 300 clinicians, with our innovative product lines the talk of the show.

Highlights

Curio Takes Center Stage: The star of the event was undoubtedly Curio. Its innovative features and versatility captivated clinicians, leading to a surge in demand for demo units for trials. Therapists are eager to arrange trials with end-users, signaling a significant step towards widespread adoption. Cheelcare's first Curio sale was in Alberta and paid for by WCB, Alberta's worker's compensation board.

Companion Gains Traction: Alongside Curio, our Companion power add-on also garnered considerable attention. Designed to boost the mobility range for manual wheelchair users, Companion’s impressive performance and positive feedback from therapists convinced Motion to procure demo units for their stores in Lethbridge, Calgary, and Edmonton. They have also committed to placing additional demo units for Saskatoon, Winnipeg, and Thunder Bay. This represents a significant investment into a cutting-edge product line and Motion's commitment to meeting the needs of their customers quickly and efficiently. 

Impact and Next Steps

The overwhelming interest from clinicians and the proactive steps taken by Motion highlight the transformative potential of Curio and Companion in the complex rehab market. To capitalize on this momentum, Cheelcare is committed to securing the capital required to build more demo units, and scale production. With the demonstrated interest and pending orders, these demo units are expected to drive rapid sales growth.
