About Saltbox
At Saltbox, we believe that operational excellence turns strong brands into great companies.

Backed by some of the leading venture capital firms in the world, we are opening locations across the U.S. Founded by experienced executives in real estate, logistics, customer success and technology, we’re on a mission to ensure that every entrepreneur has a place to call home.
