Case Study: HomeToGo accelerates global expansion with Horizons Global EOR

How a Global Leader in Vacation Rentals Accelerated Growth through Employer of Record

HomeToGo, a global leader in vacation rentals based in Germany, sought to accelerate its growth and expansion into the Asia-Pacific region. The challenge was to scale their international team quickly and flexibly in response to local demand without the high cost and administrative burden of establishing legal entities in every new country. They turned to Horizons and its Employer of Record (EOR) solution to meet this need.

Horizons became the legal employer for HomeToGo’s staff in several countries, handling payroll, contracts, and taxes. This solution provided crucial agility, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing HomeToGo to swiftly restructure its operations and enter new markets like Thailand and France without entity setup delays. This strategic flexibility supported the company’s continued growth and contributed to its successful IPO in 2021. Horizons enabled this rapid, cost-effective global expansion, saving significant resources.
