How Lush reimagined work travel with TravelPerk
Scaling an experience-driven retail business, Lush was looking for a flexible and simple travel solution.
Over the past three decades, Lush has cemented its reputation as an industry-leading personal care brand. Specializing in handmade cosmetics, they're well known for their fair trade policies, sustainability practices, and strong stance against animal testing – which has created a beloved brand that continues to grow.
With 22 offices and 850+ retail stores across 52 countries, Lush employees are frequently on the road. From attending team meetings, store check-ins, international training sessions for retail teams, and market visits–there are many reasons the team needs to travel.
Before working with TravelPerk, Lush found managing travel across such a large, diverse workforce challenging. They had no formal travel approval process, and limited ways to ensure traveler autonomy was maintained across a complex mix of frequent and infrequent travelers.
They needed a streamlined solution that allowed employees to book their own work travel while ensuring transparency and policy compliance.
Lush’s travel needs continue to evolve – In 2024 alone, Lush's North American division had 643 employees who needed to travel for work.
