Company mission
To make a positive impact on people’s lives by bringing ease, convenience, and a fresh approach to at-home, on-demand treatment services.
18% employee growth in 12 months
Our take
The global wellness market has exploded in recent years, with McKinsey estimating it to be worth $1.5 trillion. Not only this, growth shows no signs of slowing down, with annual growth recorded as high as 10%. Opportunities for companies in this sector have, therefore, never been higher.
Treatments like massages, facials, and hair make up a sizeable chunk of this market, but in recent years the traditional brick-and-mortar salon model has struggled greatly. Providers are increasingly finding that consumer habits have shifted, with many consumers now demanding treatments that fit around more busy lifestyles and a growing work-from-home culture.
Wecasa offers a solution to this. Its platform is essentially a marketplace for local hair, beauty, massage, and cleaning professionals, all of whom offer at-home treatments for Wecasa's customers.
By taking advantage of this rising trend, it's no surprise that Wecasa has seen impressive growth since its founding in 2015, and as a result, the company has received considerable funding, Wecasa is now targeting expansion, both in its current French and UK markets, and then into entirely new European countries.
