Company mission

To completely redefine how people travel.

Our take

Portuguese LUGGit addresses a common challenge faced by travellers - the inconvenience of lugging luggage around unfamiliar cities. The company offers a solution that allows users to schedule the pick-up, storage, and delivery of their luggage at a time and place of their choosing.

After a strategic redesign in 2021, LUGGit has not only solidified its presence in existing markets but has also expanded its services to Prague, Barcelona and Madrid, reaching more than 10,000 users. In the competitive landscape of Logistics Tech, LUGGit stands out for its commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction, reflected by its impressive Trustpilot rating.

A recent funding round marks a significant milestone in LUGGit's journey, and underscores investors' belief in the company. Its focus on technological development and international expansion aligns with the investors' vision to position LUGGit as one of the most innovative solutions in the tourism sector, with the company well-positioned to realise its ambitious growth plans.
