London traveltech Stasher secures £3M for global expansion

London-based travel technology startup Stasher has secured £3 million in funding to expand its luggage storage marketplace and smart locker network globally. The £2 million growth financing from investment lender Gilion joins a £1 million strategic investment from smart locker provider Hive Box. Established in 2015 by Jacob Wedderburn-Day and Anthony Collias, Stasher's platform connects travelers seeking luggage storage with hotels and local businesses offering secure storage space.

Currently, Stasher's network spans over 10,000 locations in more than 1,200 cities worldwide. Looking ahead, the company plans to integrate smart lockers into its existing model, partnering with Hive Box to deploy the first 100 units in the UK and Europe by mid-2027. These lockers, manufactured by Hive Box and integrated with Stasher's booking platform, will be strategically placed in high-traffic areas like airports, tourist attractions, and leisure destinations.

CEO and co-founder Jacob Wedderburn-Day expressed excitement about the growth financing, stating that the additional funding will enable Stasher to accelerate its global expansion efforts.
