History
Safestore was founded in the UK in 1998, and floated on the Alternative Investment Market that year. In 2003, the company delisted from the Alternative Investment Market after a Bridgepoint-backed £39.8 million Management Buyout led by Steve Williams (Chief Executive at the time).
In 2004, Safestore acquired Mentmore plc for £209 million who were trading under the 'Spaces' brand in the UK and as the 'Une Pièce en Plus' (UPEP) brand in France. UPEP were co-founded in 1998 by the current Safestore Group CEO Frederic Vecchioli. The company has been listed in the London Stock Exchange since 2007. In April 2013, Safestore was converted into a real estate investment trust (REIT).
