RPL has worked on over 30 B2C related projects. Sub-sectors include fashion, homeware, food, and travel. These are some of our most recent projects.
In 2021, RPL conducted commercial due diligence on Foresight’s investment into glamping pod holiday company FURTHER.SPACE.
FURTHER.SPACE was founded in 2019 and operates luxury pod accommodation across Scotland and Ireland. The Company manufactures high-quality, design-led pod accommodation installed in hand-picked partner locations, available through direct marketing and a booking platform that is managed by FURTHER.SPACE
RPL’s main task was to determine the total addressable market – how many pods the UK glamping market could sustain – and assess FURTHER.SPACE’s growth plan against these market projections. This was particularly important given the drastic and polarising effects of the Covid pandemic on the UK tourism and hospitality sectors.
We also interviewed existing landowner partners to assess FURTHER.SPACE’s performance and the attractiveness of its unique business model against other market players.
