Establish an easyStorage self storage franchise in Derbyshire, with estimated Year 5 turnover of £250,000 to £350,000 and EBITDA of £75,000 to £100,000.
This new franchise territory offers the opportunity to develop a container storage business at a potential site identified in Derbyshire. The business plan anticipates 100 to 125 containers after five years, with operating breakeven estimated within the first 12 months. Set-up costs are yet to be confirmed, with costs typically funded equally between the franchisee and a bank.
easyStorage customers rent containers on a flexible monthly basis, building recurring income as the site fills. Bookings and smartphone-controlled access are managed through VAULT, the brand's online operating platform, with access potentially available 24 hours a day. Central sales and customer experience teams handle sales and customer enquiries, while specialist marketing partners support launch campaigns and ongoing customer acquisition.
The site operates without on-site employees. Storage assets are purchased for the location and rented back to the franchisee, supported by easyStorage's £180 million facility with Arini Capital. Additional containers are delivered as demand develops, helping align rental commitments with growth. Franchisees use the PULSE platform to monitor the business, supported by a dedicated Franchise Development Manager.
A strong business background or previous record of success is beneficial because landlords generally require a strong covenant. The franchise agreement is for 10 years, with a further 10-year renewal available.
