ELKO Group to bring Segway Navimow’s wire‑free, AI‑enabled robotic mowers to Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovenia and Croatia.


Segway Navimow, the World’s No.1 Brand in Wire Free Robotic Lawn Mower Volume Sales*, announced ELKO Group, one of the region’s largest distributors of IT and consumer electronics, has been appointed as an authorised distributor on the Massive Retailer Channel in Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovenia and Croatia. Through a new partnership with ELKO, Navimow gains a powerful distribution channel for its advanced robotic lawn mower lineup, including the full 2026 range. At the same time, the partnership expands ELKO’s smart‑home and garden portfolio with Navimow’s latest wire‑free, LiDAR/vision‑guided robotic lawn mowers, including models designed for complex terrains and larger lawns.

“Wirefree setup, centimetre-level navigation and classleading safety features are shifting robotic mowing from a niche to a mainstream household utility. With Segway Navimow, ELKO’s partners across the Baltics and CEE can now meet that demand with a premium, proven brand,” said Baiba Indane, Business and Development Director at ELKO Group.

“The robotic lawn mower industry is stepping into a brand-new phase. Wire-free installation, precise navigation, and safety-first obstacle detection—these features are no longer “nice-to-haves” but have become the baseline expectations of consumers. By forging a partnership with ELKO, we can leverage the strength of leading mass retailers across the region to scale these innovations. In this way, we can make premium autonomous lawn care solutions more accessible to households in our key target markets,” said Ryan Kong, General Manager EU BU.

Europe’s robotic lawn mower market continues to expand, supported by the shift to wire-free navigation, AI-based obstacle detection and energy-efficient electric platforms. Analysts estimate the European market will deliver a high-single- to low-double-digit CAGR through the early 2030s.
