Stasher Raises £3 Mn to Expand Luggage Storage Across UK and Europe

The funding includes around £2 million in growth financing from Gilion and a £1 million strategic investment from Hive Box, a smart locker provider.

Commenting on the investment round, Jacob Wedderburn-Day, CEO and co-founder of Stasher, said: "We’ve spent the last ten years building Stasher into a global network, and this funding gives us the firepower to accelerate the next stage of growth."

Stasher now has a network of more than 10,000 locations across 1,200+ cities worldwide. The company is expanding beyond its original luggage storage marketplace by adding dedicated smart lockers to its network.

As part of its partnership with Hive Box, Stasher will receive an initial 100 smart lockers. These lockers are expected to be installed across the UK and Europe by mid-2027. Hive Box will provide the lockers, along with the hardware, IoT platform and remote-management technology, which will be connected to Stasher’s booking platform.

Stasher will use more than 10 years of booking and search data to decide where to add more lockers. The company will look at areas where travellers frequently search for luggage storage, existing locations are often full, or customers need storage outside normal staffed hours.
