Las Vegas hosted the autumn conference for America’s Self Storage Association between the 4th and 6th of September. The event drew visitors country wide, and indeed worldwide, and was a feast of information, talks, seminars and discussions. With the US economy at the forefront of operators’ and suppliers’ minds, speakers from across the industry addressed ways in which the negative effects could be combated and avoided.
Serving markets throughout Asia, Europe, Australia and the Middle East, Steel Storage took this opportunity to meet with operators and investors who are seeking to expand internationally. Offering services such as market analysis reports, site finding, operational evaluation and sourcing of potential local partners, Steel Storage were there to offer a stepping stone into the fast-growing international self storage industry. Growth in regions throughout Europe and Asia has encouraged many investors from across the waters to seek out opportunities and gain that “first mover” advantage.
Group Marketing Coordinator for Steel Storage Group, Laura Tully, commented “Attending and taking part at this convention has been an eye opener for us in gauging the levels of interest for expansion into international markets. It is evident that people can see the potential in these other markets and are willing to make the move with the aim of reaping the rewards when those markets take off”.
