A Slovak startup, Boataround.com, an online platform for boat rentals, has achieved its first operational profit and successfully expanded into the German market. Founded in 2016 by Pavel Pribiš and Jana Escher, the company operates similarly to Booking.com, but focuses exclusively on boat rentals. Boataround.com recently reached a milestone by becoming profitable earlier this year. The company’s success has garnered attention from potential investors, including Czech billionaires, whose acquisition offer was reportedly declined. Details regarding the financial terms of the offer were not disclosed. This achievement marks a significant step forward for the Slovak tech company, demonstrating its growing presence in the competitive boat rental industry. The founders appear confident in maintaining independent growth and further expansion.
