Calle Red Cinco, 49 – Polígono Industrial La Red, Alcalá de Guadaíra, Andalucia, 41500, Spain

Overview

Kampaoh is an Andalusian startup that specializes in accommodations in natural settings. The company operates and markets nature‑based lodging and is focused on scaling its footprint across Europe. In 2022 Kampaoh reported more than €8.8 million in revenue and expects to exceed €30 million in 2023. The funds raised will be used to drive the company’s expansion in Europe and to consolidate its presence in Spain during 2023. Management is also working on a planned €150 million capital raise intended to enable the company to reach over 30,000 nature accommodations within the next three years. Kampaoh provides pre-assembled canvas tents and wooden cabins outfitted for use at campgrounds and for special events. The company designs and manufactures exclusive tents and furniture that it says are only available through Kampaoh and also creates unique camping experiences for events and commercial clients. Funds raised are earmarked for technology development (website improvements, a proprietary booking engine and campsite management tools), hiring strategic talent, and expanding its in-house design and manufacturing. Kampaoh plans to buy and produce more tents to continue national and international expansion and aims in 2022 to be in 50 campings in Spain with 1,200 tents and open its first international destination. The company is majority-owned by founder and CEO Salvador Lora alongside partners Alfredo Vázquez (CTO), Saturnino Jiménez (expansion) and Román Gómez Millán (CFO) and is based in Alcalá de Guadaira (Sevilla). Financially, Kampaoh reported €1.7M in revenue in 2019, expects to close the current year with €3.4M, and targets €8M in 2022. Kampaoh offers fully equipped tents and camper vans that enable comfortable outdoor stays and aim to bring camping to a broader public. Since 2016 the company has grown from 30 tents in Cádiz to more than 400 units across Andalusia and expanding presence in Catalonia, Cantabria, and Galicia, serving over 50,000 customers. Growth continued through the pandemic due to customer demand and partnerships with campgrounds. The new capital will be used to accelerate brand growth, expand the team, and advance operational and technological development. Kampaoh plans domestic expansion into provinces such as Almería, Tarragona, Girona, and Santander and expects to begin international expansion with a first site in Bogotá, Colombia in 2021. The company also plans to launch two new lines—Kampaoh UP (own-designed tents) and Kampaoh GO (campervan conversions)—to broaden its accommodation offerings.
