Endre Opdal is a life-long serial entrepreneur and business developer, with a two-decade track record of building and developing international companies. 

 

After moving to Kenya from Norway in 2010, he never looked back, taking his passion for building businesses to the next level on the African continent.

 

Endre founded Savanna Sunrise together with Håvar Bauck in 2014. The idea behind it was based on the marketing formula from their massively successful joint hotel project, Nairobi Airport Hotel, launched a year earlier in Syokimau, next to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.  In 2017, Savanna Sunrise merged with a Polish competitor in a highly-publicized cross-border merger to become what is today known as HotelOnline.
