The TentBox
story

Our story so far...

TentBox was founded in the UK in 2014 and is now the best-selling rooftop tent brand in Britain. We launched in the USA in 2022 and are based out of Tucson Arizona.

 
1956

A very British invention

Inventor Victor Rosen designed a simple and functional rooftop tent way back in the 50s. It didn't take off as roof bars were hard to come by – which massively changed in the 21st century!

A dream was born

Whilst travelling around France, brothers Ollie and Neill had a dream to make rooftop tents the next big thing by designing RTTs that could fit on any vehicle.
