the pitch


VanLab USA manufactures beautiful, ready-to-assemble campervan conversion kits from premium and sustainable materials. We believe we make Vanlife more accessible than ever before. Flatpacked and shipped within 5 days of order, our dream campervan kitsets can be self-assembled in just 2 days with no pre-requisite skills required. We are experts in design optimization for small areas, we strongly believe in re-purposing space to deliver multi-functionality and effortless versatility. Our automated manufacturing process aims to modernize our market space with affordable, practical, and aesthetically focused flatpack kits - all shipped nationwide using our unique sustainable and ‘up-cycable’ packaging. Our market space is in growth, with 53% of millennials now interested in buying an RV. We believe we are introducing a product designed for scalability and have remained cash flow positive with zero debt. Already turning heads in the automotive industry, VanLab was recently featured in Ford's new 'Ford Pro Transit' launch video. 





Finally, the van conversion you always dreamed of


At VanLab USA, we believe we are disrupting and modernizing the RV market with an innovative, industry-first product: our pre-designed, ready-to-assemble campervan conversion kits are currently being shipped nationwide.



We have backed our Scandinavian design aesthetic with a clear brand identity and consistent messaging of mass market affordable luxury. Now, we are entering the rapidly growing US RV industry.

We believe that the concept of remote living, remote working, and domestic exploration has been accelerated by the COVID 19 pandemic, improved communication infrastructure, and influencer-heavy documentation of the idyllic life-on-the-road for the millennial generation. A trend backed by automotive giants such as Ford and Rivian (source).

Following our success with VanLab NZ, we are seeking investment to enhance our established methodologies and expand our products within the rapidly growing US RV market.

*The above stop motion is a functional demonstration of an assembled kit.

The Problem & Our Solution


Making ‘VanLife’ more accessible with our high-quality, self-assembly campervan conversion kits

We believe it’s not so easy to start a ‘VanLife.’ We’ve found that converted vehicles are expensive to buy, time consuming to have built, and difficult to DIY. 

We listened to our customers and heard their struggles. A combination of time, lack of space, and concerns over prerequisite skill-sets limited them from building their own conversion. We created VanLab to remove these barriers for the earnest explorer, the weekend rambler, or even the remote worker. Our removable kits enable the upfitting of existing vehicles to better reflect the multi-purpose requirements of the user. We aim to deliver the feel of a boutique hotel with the view of the Grand Canyon, all at an affordable price. 

*The above video is a time-lapse of construction, and may not reflect the true amount of assembly time.



Growth and scalability are at the heart of VanLab’s process, utilizing 3D scanning, computer aided design, and automated manufacturing. Taking inspiration from the automotive production line model, we design our kits following Poka-Yoke  (meaning mistake-proof) principles; think square peg AND a square hole. Each panel is pre-labeled, pre-drilled, and pre-shaped to only fit in the correct location. 


Our expert in-house design team crafts precise engineering drawings of every detail, before exporting files for contract manufacturing. The automated CNC manufacturing process is fast, efficient, and highly repeatable; cutting perfect kitsets everytime. Once programmed, a kit is produced on one machine in just 4 hours. With a nationwide network of CNC manufacturers, this methodology provides a pathway for rapid growth by reducing capital expenditure, staffing costs, and early overheads.




We send our kits to customers (our quasi-workforce), who then assemble them following our detailed instruction manual. This allows us to grow assembly volumes without increasing staff requirements. 


Our low overhead and scalable business model focuses on the reinvestment of profits back into the business which we can then put towards market share growth. 




The Market & Our Traction



Taking off in a growing market sector 


The popularization of ‘VanLife’ is booming and it's here to stay.

(sourcesource- starting at current timestamp 4:58)


We believe that the 'Van life' market sector is seeing significant growth due to changing customer behavior towards work, travel, and domestic exploration. We believe that this increasing interest in Vanlife & its assoicated products is also reflected via the following investment amounts in other marketplace competitors. For example, RV Ezy- a peer-to-peer marketplace for RVs- raised about $19M as of May 2021. Cabana- a company that turns vans into bookable mobile hotels- raised $10M via Series A as of June 2021 (source). Finally, Outdoorsy, as of June 2021, had raised a total of $195.1M in finding over 8 rounds (source, source, source, source, source). These rental platforms sell the dream of the modern RV lifestyle; the reawakening of the simplicities of nature and the experience of accessible luxury. This has converted to 53% of millennials looking to continue this dream with RV ownership (source- starting at current timestamp 4:58).


VanLab is designed to capitalize on this demand. We believe that this sizeable interest in the 'Vanlife' lifestyle, along with evolving consumer attitudes towards combining working from home and travelling domestically, has created a relatively lucrative market for VanLab to participate in with our innovative designs and streamlined self-assembly model.


The RV market is expected to hit $87.89 Billion by 2028 at a CAGR of 6.7% with North America expected to dominate the market due to the rapid development of outdoor activities (source). Additionally, we have a product road map expanding into the mini-van, truck, and SUV markets, which have a total combined value of $500 Billion per year in the US (source). 



Catching a contemporary trend in the automotive market, Ford has specifically targeted VanLife with their 'Ford Pro Transit'; a vehicle designed for aftermarket RV conversions. Ford claims the largest market sector for this vehicle is the DIY-ers (source). In their launch video, the VanLab Ford Transit kit was featured as a complementary product to highlight the accessibility of RV conversions to this group.


Additionally, others are taking notice of VanLab as a part of this space too. We were featured in Automotive websites such as Motor1 and The Autopian, along with the luxury Architecture & Design Magazine, Dwell (source, source, source, source). 


We are seeing a growth in order volume, weekly we are achieving up to $18.5K revenue and over 10,000 website sessions. We have recently released viral video content across multiple social media platforms in partnership with a VanLife influencer, Deanna Dunn. Over a 4 week period, we achieved over 8 million of video views on TikTok, Youtube, and Instagram, with over $1million of products “added to cart” on our website (based on number of sessions ‘added to cart’ and average website sale value for the same time period).  We have 100% five-star reviews across Google and Facebook.

VanLab’s $10K / 2 Day, RV Conversion

We are pleased to announce that VanLab is now offering a comprehensive install service from our workshop in Simi Valley, CA.

In addition to VanLab’s nationwide shipping of ready-to-assemble flatpack kits, we aim to complement our core business model with an install service. We’ve put an experienced install team together and provided a modern, clean and easily accessible workshop space to operate in.  

We’re very excited to offer this service and feel it shows how VanLab continues to grow its services, designs and operations in 2023.

VanLab to enter $500bn Marketspace

We are pleased to announce that product development is well underway for an innovative and new VanLab product, aimed at the Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) market. The SUV market is currently worth $300.76bn. We also have upcoming plans to release a second generation of product for the truck and minivan market, bringing the total market size to $500bn. 

Our new product will be a 'one-size-fits-all' design, allowing us to cut before order and opening up new distribution channels with a B2B sales focus. This innovative design will set us apart from our competitors and provide us with a competitive edge in the market. 

We are proud to share that we are on track to have the first parts in hand in early April. Our team has been working tirelessly to ensure that the product meets our high standards of quality and functionality.

Alongside our new product, we are continuing the expansion of our van ranges. We are currently working to deliver a new design for the Ford Transit Extended model to our customers by the end of March, with further models for Promaster and Transit Connect in the pipeline. 

We are confident that our new product will be a game changer in the SUV market and we are excited to see the impact it will have on our company's growth. We would like to extend our thanks to our investors for their continued support as we move forward with this exciting new venture.

03.09.23

Our Sustainability Focus

The core concept of VanLab’s business model is that our kits can be shipped to every corner of the country and assembled on site. However this presents a number of problems…

  • How do we protect our kits in transit? 
  • How does the customer dispose of their shipping box? 
  • How do we achieve a zero plastic shipping solution?

We set our Design team to task, and have developed a novel zero plastic and up-cyclable shipping solution. Up-cyclable? To up-cycle your packaging. To repurpose your shipping crate into something new, and useful. In our case, a set of complementary flatpack stools to take on your adventure. 

Taking inspiration from the cereal boxes of our childhoods, our kits follow the same methodology. Cut along the pre-defined lines to cut out 8 individual pieces which can then be slotted together to make 2 bar stools. They are simply pulled apart, and stowed as flat pieces of wood; no tools required. 

Our shipping crate also features a clever little divider to keep your panels safe in transit, while allowing our team to pack your fitting kit in a PLASTIC FREE package. We believe our shipping crates highlight the attention to detail we follow to produce products true to our company values. 

Check out a render of our NV200 shipping crate and stools below as an example.

Pretty neat hey!

422% Year-on-Year Revenue Growth. 281% Website Traffic Growth.

The results are in, and the first two months of 2023 have surpassed expectations. We have experienced an incredible 422% Year-on-Year (YoY) growth in sales revenue when compared to the same period in 2022. This YoY growth has been powered by a four month run of Month-on-Month (MoM) growth, dating back to October 2022. 


We are particularly pleased with this recent performance, considering it spans the winter months. And, as we all know, camping can be a fair-weather hobby! We believe the recent growth trend demonstrates the increasing demand of a changing market space and the building excitement for our products. It supports our belief that VanLab is at a tipping point for continued success.

We look forward to the Spring and Summer months, with early signs looking really positive. Over the first two months of 2023, our website traffic has increased 281% compared to the same period in the previous year. 

Our social media following has also seen a 245% growth on the Instagram platform, with content going viral and reaching 10.2 million views on just one video. Also, on the up are web inquiries, average order price, number of orders and direct and organic web traffic. 

Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to sharing more updates with you soon.

For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.

At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.

Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.

StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.

For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.

For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the company’s offering circular.

Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.

Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the account associated with the investment.

Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements.
