Online booking platform Wahanda now has 10,000 bookable spas and salons across the UK.

“Reaching 10,000 venues is a huge landmark for us, but we still have a long way to go,” said Lopo Champalimaud, CEO and founder of Wahanda. “Only 12 per cent of hair and beauty venues use salon management software, at a time when over 45 per cent of consumers are demanding to book hair and beauty online.”

Based in London, Wahanda recently acquired its French equivalent, ZenSoon, as well as its Dutch equivalent, Treatwell.
