Tempodepot

What Tempodepot does

Tempodepot (legally TempoDepot, Sarl) is a Switzerland-based two-sided online marketplace that connects owners of warehouse and storage space with businesses and individuals seeking temporary or short-term storage. The company was founded in 2016 by Olivier Houart — a logistics veteran with 16 years in Transport and Logistics, most recently as CEO and President of a freight forwarding company — and operates from a registered address in Cully, Switzerland. The Space Provider side includes warehouses, logistics companies, freight forwarders, trucking companies, industrial providers, and private owners; the General User side includes any company or individual needing storage for goods, logistics operations, or supply chain management. Currently only Lausanne and Basle surface as listed cities on the platform.

The underlying platform is a cloud-based marketplace accessible at tempodepot.com that supports property listing management, booking request workflows, calendar management, document sharing, and payment processing. Notable technical components include an anonymity-based pricing model that hides Space Provider identity until a booking is accepted, multi-format property listings (pallets, square meters, cubic meters) with 360-degree pictures and videos, and a calendar management system that exports daily bookings in CSV for warehouse management system (WMS) integration. Payment processing is handled through PayPal and Stripe, and the platform supports self-serve social login via LinkedIn, Facebook, and Google.

Tempodepot generates revenue through two streams: Space Provider subscription fees starting at 150 CHF (Switzerland) or 150 EUR (Euro zone) per property listing for a defined period, and a 5% service fee charged to General Users on each transaction, capped at 200 EUR or CHF. Distribution is entirely self-serve via the website — there is no field sales, no reseller channel, and no mobile app — and marketing is limited to organic search, platform discovery, and an email newsletter. Pricing is offered in CHF, EUR, and USD depending on property location, indicating intent to serve markets beyond Switzerland despite the current narrow visible footprint.
