Chicago-based Togo Group, an American technology platform for road travel and outdoor experiences, has added Campendium to its family of digital brands. Campendium, which will continue to operate as a stand-alone brand, is a web and mobile application that allows users to search, preview, and provide feedback on more than 32,000 public and private camping locations across the continental United States, Canada, and Baja Mexico. Over the past 12 months, Campendium’s app and website traffic has grown 59%, with a 58.5%increase of net-new users.
“Campendium is the standard for RVers when finding places to camp. From public lands to established campgrounds, Campendium’s knowledge is rapidly-growing, and used by millions of RVers,” said Togo Group CEO Danny Hest. “It will significantly advance our mission to provide RVers and roadtrippers with end-to-end trip discovery and planning tools – including finding accommodations – that allow them to fully enjoy their journey. We look forward to applying our experience, scale, and tools to help Campendium further develop its product, enhance the user experience, and grow the platform’s reach.”
It is no coincidence that Campendium will soon be accessible with the Togo Group’s Roadpass system. Co-founders Brian Easterling and Leigh Wetzel, who launched the website in 2015, will remain with Campendium to support its continued growth.
“Helping people discover great places to camp has been our passion for over six years,” said Leigh Wetzel. “Joining the Togo Group family with its depth of resources and talent is the best way for Campendium to reach its full potential, further improve the experience for our community”.
