Explore a new easyStorage self storage franchise opportunity in Surrey, with estimated Year 5 turnover of £550,000+ and EBITDA of £200,000+.
A potential site has been identified for this Surrey territory, with a planned capacity of approximately 150 to 175 storage containers after five years. Set-up costs are estimated at £250,000 to £300,000, requiring £125,000 to £150,000 in own capital. Costs are typically funded equally between the franchisee and a bank, with operating breakeven estimated between months 12 and 16.
The business provides flexible container storage on a monthly rental basis, generating recurring revenue as customer occupancy increases. Through easyStorage's VAULT platform, customers can book storage online and access their units using a smartphone, potentially 24 hours a day. The central Sales Desk supports conversions, the Customer Experience team manages customer enquiries and complaints, and specialist marketing partners support customer acquisition.
This is an unmanned franchise model with no employees required. Storage assets are purchased for the site and rented back to the franchisee, supported by easyStorage's £180 million facility with Arini Capital. Containers can be added progressively as the customer base grows, rather than committing to the full planned capacity immediately. Franchisees manage the business through PULSE, with guidance from a Franchise Development Manager.
Applicants with business experience or a proven record of success are encouraged, as landlords generally require a strong covenant. The franchise term is 10 years, renewable for another 10 years.
