"The Storage Giant footprint extends to The Midlands and the M4 corridor but we are a home-grown success story and it is great to add to our Wales-based portfolio of Newport, Cardiff, Swansea, Cwmbran and Llanelli. This expansion for us is, of course, also a sign that the local economy is resilient in the face of recent hardships, and that firms in Wales are continuing to invest and to grow.”
He added: “Storage Giant has always been a go-to choice for start-ups and entrepreneurs to establish their smes in our office and storage spaces, or for larger firms to set up satellite offices, and we know this is something local entrepreneurs in Bridgend will tap into.
"The Storage Giant story continues to be one of steady, managed growth and we continue to expand our portfolio in 2023, with a new Storage Giant facility in development, in Nottingham, set to open this year with several more in the pipeline, including Stoke-on-Trent, Willenhall, Kidderminster and Witney.”
The fast-growing company started out as a single-facility at the onset of recession in 2007 and is now the largest independent self-storage firm in the UK.
