Meet Our Team!

We wouldn’t be where we are today without our luggage.co.nz & Laine Home team! We’re a small dedicated bunch that love what we do. From our offices up here in beautiful Tauranga, we take what we do seriously – but always make sure the day is full of laughter, banter and food!

Get to know the luggage.co.nz & Laine Home team below!

Elliot | Director, Co-Founder / Product Buying Jedi

Hey! I’m Elliot, I’m a founding member of luggage.co.nz & Laine Home. I love web design and finding new and interesting products for us to sell while I’m at work! On my days off I like boating, fishing, watching the rugby and having a beer with friends. Let me know if you’ve seen any cool luggage, travel or homeware products that you think we should supply! Get up the All Blacks, Chiefs and Black Caps! (I like sport, can you tell?)

Guy | Director, Co-Founder / Mr. Fix It!

Hey I’m Guy, I co-founded luggage.co.nz & Laine Home as I wanted to be part of a business that has a ‘Delivering Happiness’ culture, delivering wow experiences to our team & our customers! Google it if you are keen to learn more – it’s pretty cool stuff! I’m the Online Director here, so I’m in charge of all the crazy code stuff. I love that there is constant change in my role & everyday brings new challenges, no two days are ever the same. I really enjoy working with our team to deliver the best experiences we can for our customers. Outside the office, I love living in the Bay of Plenty & really enjoy getting out & exploring this slice of paradise we live in! Computer not working? Try turning it off and on again!

Kenny | Warehouse Extraordinaire

Hi, I’m Kenny! I came to NZ in 1984 and haven’t left! I love my family, food and Tauranga! I haven’t lived anywhere else in NZ, although I love traveling – who doesn’t right?! I’m always too hot – it’s the Scotsman in me! I’m the guy that makes sure your package arrives to you quick-smart! Keep an eye out, you may receive a personalised note from me with your order!

Stu | Pick/Pack & Inventory Guru

Hey, I’m Stu! I have been part of the Luggage.co.nz Team since November 2022. My job is to make sure once you’ve found what you’re after, I pick, pack and dispatch it quick sharp!

Kaitlin | Customer Happiness Team Lead

Hi I'm Kaitlin and I'm here to keep you happy :) Have a question about your order? Want to know more about our products? I'm here to help! I love travel of course and have spent some time living overseas in London and Los Angeles, but Tauranga has always been home and I'm glad to be back. Outside of work you'll likely catch me singing and dancing on stage, I've been involved in local community theatre all my life and can't get enough of it, I'm a real musical theatre nerd!

Demi | Customer Happiness Fanatic

Hi I am Demi and customer service is my middle name. I am here to ensure all your hopes and dreams are made possible. I am the newest addition to the luggage.co.nz family but don't let that fool you, I mean business and am ready to service all of your needs. Need an answer quick? I'm your gal!

Hollie | The Wordy One

Words are expressive and powerful when used right. They can create magical, lasting imagery. I love creating beautifully written content that touches hearts and tells a story, therefore memorable. With my keen eye for detail, I enjoy getting creative with photography- nothing is more rewarding or important then capturing a moment, especially candid.

Life is too short for a boring job, so incorporating my passions I studied Business and Marketing and am now proud to work with the fantastic team at luggage.co.nz and Homeware Online as Marketing Coordinator & Creative Copywriter. My family are my main priority in life, the reason I get out of bed in the morning, literally. I love spending as much time with them as possible. Between work and family, I enjoy creating in the kitchen – I think the rewarding part about it is producing something from nothing but ingredients, and of course the smiles on my children’s faces! My pet peeve – UNMATCHED SOCKS!

Savannah | The Content Queen

Hi there, I’m Savannah and I am in charge of all things content related! I spend a lot of time writing product descriptions, taking/sourcing photography and creating emails for our marketing campaigns. I have always had a passion for writing, and enjoy reading books when I find the time. I am totally dog obsessed and spend my lunch breaks playing with Willow – our work labradoodle. I have lived in Tauranga for most of my life and love spending lots of time at the beach during summer. The end goal is to save up enough money to own a wee puppy and a house by the ocean!


Jamie | The Numbers Guy

Hey, I’m Jamie! Born and raised in Rotorua, I spent 5 years in Auckland and can confirm I’m glad to be out. Residing in Rotorua, I make the daily commute to Tauranga where I can chuck on some JRE or Flagrant 2 and enjoy the ride. I’m also a numbers person. My role at Luggage.co.nz & Laine Home is to implement and optimize our Marketing strategies using the data gathered from you, our valued customers with the goal of ensuring you get the best possible user experience.I do this by testing everything; Which creative will increase clicks? Test it. Which landing page works best? Test it. Which route is fastest to get to work? Test it.
