Canada's largest owner and operator of self-storage and portable storage facilities.
Canada's largest owner and operator of self-storage and portable storage facilities.
Rents storage units on short, often month-to-month terms, so rents can be adjusted often and revenue follows occupancy and rate. Much of its growth has come from buying independent operators and building new sites rather than from existing locations alone.
Moat: narrow (scale, brand, distribution). Largest self-storage network in Canada gives density and brand advantages in a fragmented market.
Headquarters: Toronto, Canada · Founded: 1998 · Employees: 900
