A MIDLANDS business centre and self-storage company has been named the UK’s Independent Operator Store of the Year at an awards ceremony in Birmingham.
Squad Storage, which is headquartered in Leamington with other branches in Rubery and Evesham received the accolade at The Self Storage Association UK (SSA UK) Awards.
The company, led by Directors Emlyn Evans and Alex Henney, offers storage for companies and individuals and acts as a hub for companies in a range of sectors.
Judges assessed Squab on strict criteria including business performance, location and construction and community involvement, as well as a visit from a ‘mystery shopper’.
The company will now compete for the European Operator of the Year award at the FEDESSA Awards in Rotterdam in October.
Emlyn Evans said: “We are thrilled Squab Storage has been named as the UK’s Independent Operator Store of the Year.
We’ve invested heavily in the site over the past two years and are soon set to expand into Suffolk, marking an incredibly exciting time for us as a company.
At the heart of everything we do is the service we provide to our tenants, not only investing in our infrastructure and technology, but our customers too.
We are proud of the investment that we have made into businesses on site, transforming it into not only a fantastic self-storage facility, but also a vibrant community hub for local businesses and people in a beautiful location.”
Squab Storage were also recently named as family business of the year at the Midlands Service Excellence Awards in March.
