Most are 1-3 people operations with the most suitable in our opinion situated on private estate. However, many companies are situated in a traditional warehouse setting, industrial estates or even under ground car parking locations.
These people who own estates moved into vehicle storage as a means to utilize their property to make a sound income for retirement. Here, a purchase would be costly. However, to find a company struggling financially that can be anything Automotive as such - but with storage capacity would perhaps be a more feasible option.
Above all else, it's maybe simpler to just start from scratch with some car storage barns - click here.

Franchise Model
The franchise model was learned during the creators early career, a consultancy role for a well-known retail outlet. At it peak, the franchise held 246 franchisee's in the UK and around 16 franchisee's in the EU. He was hired for almost to two years to oversea a US Investment Management Buyout to the tune of £18m.
He was involved with the reconciliation of the company sales ledger's which included monthly management fees, adversity levy and stock purchases. This entailed him communicating extensively will all supplier & retail store owner's building a repour with them directly to understand their business operations, and needs. He also gained vast knowledge from sitting in HQ that included the other department heads.
His Franchise model creates a lot of value because the above franchise set-up fee request was £35,000.00. They did need to sign a lease and pay for a store (physical location) which obviously makes things more expensive.
Anyhow he witnessed how much money most of these people lost and the high levels of personal debt they occurred.
His car storage franchise idea does not operate like this. Rather a system to reduce a companies Marketing costs plus provide them with expert guidance and new clients directly.
In the past a Return on Investment was instant. He usually has clients ready to enter a facility prior to the door even being open.
To continue the story, the creator deployed HQ Business Development managers to franchisee stores that were struggling. Resources were optimized accordingly, and done so in a fair manner. Some store owners welcomed the support and the BDM's helped them develop skills they perhaps lacked whilst others were perhaps unmotivated, and unable to benefit from these HQ resources.
The total volume of balance the creator was involved with on a month by month basis was £1.4-£1.8m. This was the monthly turnover of operations for Head Office including fee's and stock purchases. The total company turnover was approximately £40m a year.
He oversaw the replacement of two Managing Directors, the initial one left due to the sudden change of business direction. A new Finance Director who actually hired the creator when she first joined the company. A new head of operations who obtained valuable insights from the creator due to his in-depth franchisee knowledge at that time. And finally, a new Marketing director.
The story above demonstrates the Creator's organizational responsibility, awareness, integral communications and solid decision making skills. He feels these are worthy attributes when deciding how to grow your Business - click here.
