Wahanda (http://www.wahanda.com/) Wahanda is a global resource for health, beauty and wellness. As the most comprehensive wellness website in the UK, it includes listings for thousands of spas, salons wellness centres, therapists and practitioners, as well as the facility to submit a review for any of these businesses. The site allows users to research a wide variety of treatments and book them at a nearby location. Wahanda is a Native American word meaning 'great spirit and creator'.
Founded by veterans of lastminute.com (a Travelocity company) and Yahoo Search, Wahanda has brought together investors behind some of the leading businesses in the internet and hospitality industries, including Ambient Sound Investments (the investment firm created by the former founding engineers at Skype), Brent Hoberman (co-Founder of lastminute.com), Stefan Glaenzer (Former Executive Chairman of last.fm) and Wolf Hengst (Former President of Worldwide Operations, Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts).
Wahanda is looking to broaden the market by not only reaching existing spa, wellness and beauty consumers, but by also appealing to potential new consumers who previously may have found the industry intimidating or inaccessible.
