Intro

Hi, we’re Eloy Padilla and Kai Meier, co-founders of Outzip.

We’re solving a structural problem in the outdoor industry: high-quality gear is expensive, underused, and locked in fragmented, offline rental systems. Outzip enables access over ownership by turning outdoor rentals into a scalable, digital marketplace.


About

Outzip is a SaaS-enabled marketplace for outdoor gear rentals that connects brands, local retailers, and logistics partners into one circular ecosystem. We help partners monetize inventory through rentals while giving customers easy, flexible access to gear—without the need to buy. Our platform supports shipping-based rentals & local pickup, and destination-based use cases. We are based in Berlin and our primary market is DACH.
