13 4 1 IN A NUTSHELL YEARS AGO. AMBITIOUS GUYS. MISSION – DO BETTER. OUR STORY
2000 The story begins – the future NUCO founders experience their first taste of the student snowsports world. The passion starts.
2004 / 08 The soon to be creators of NUCO find themselves running the student ski tour operator 'Off the Piste'.
2009 TUI (world's largest travel company) buys Off the Piste – the battle to prevent the student snowsports industry becoming corporate begins.
2011 The NUCO founders leave Off
the Piste – their passion and vision for the snowsports world being more important than their prestigious positions as market leaders.
MAR / 2012 NUCO Travel is born (from the makeshift office of 'Mum and Dad's lounge'). The mission is set.
SEPT / 2012 We take our first office – a tiny windowless basement – the NUCO headquarters are born.
DEC / 2012 We run our first ever independent ski trip, and we don't start small – a 3000 strong Oxbridge Varsity trip to Val Thorens.
2012 / 13 NUCO already have 7,000
2013 / 14 Within 12 months of creation, NUCO becomes the market leader and the largest and most trusted brand in the student snowsports market, taking over 14,000 passengers in our second season.
2014 / 16 NUCO founders and their ever growing team of like-minded warriors continue to pioneer and better the student snowsports world - first ever student trip to Pas de la Casa, Andorra and the introduction of 3 other new resort options never previously offered to the uni groups market.
passengers on their books, the same amount as any of the larger established competitors – the snowsports revolution begins. Competitors become fearful.
SUMMER / 2017 NUCO HQ hits 20 full time team members, and Sunset on Summer (SOS) is born.
2020 The year the world stopped. We didn't pause, we innovated, invested and prepared for the reopenings in a big way.
2020 / 21 The reawakening season. A difficult year with Omicron and the P&O crisis, but we came out the other side stronger.
Another year later, new market leader - NUCO Travel . Now 13 years in, over 200,000 happy customers, evidentially the most trusted choice for student snowsports. This all equals one very proud team (and a few office dogs).
THE FUTURE 13 years in and we’re just getting started... Be part of our future and help take student snowsports to the next level.
2022 / 23 Back to business. Our first full season in 3 years, getting back on track and building for the future.
2023 /24 Our growth continues, the team hits 50 and we open a second office in York.
2024 /25 Our most successful season to date, working with more groups than ever, resorts and partners.
