They rented in a few months with no real advertising as such, so we used the remaining space to build another 6. They also went quite well and we are now thinking of building an extra 19 new ones. They rent for around 85 pounds a week each. 85 x 30... its quite a nice sum to add to the yearly takings. They cost more on the fit-out but return better profits and it also spreads our customers over a couple different markets. We are looking for other ideas to fill quite a large space. Are we covering all angles ...? With only 3 years in the business I am looking for any advice from some long term Pro's.
Ah. Ok. About the office-idea it sound interesting, I gotta dig into it. In the UK, esp. London, I can imagine the rent beeing much higher than here in Sweden. Have you though of any concept including eBay? Do you offer companies any other services other than the storage itself?

How many facilities do you operate and how big are they?
