- Big Yellow Group PLC (BYG.L) is the UK's leading owner and operator of self storage facilities, providing secure storage solutions for personal, business, and commercial customers across England and Wales. The company offers a comprehensive range of services including short- and long-term storage units in various sizes, flexible rental terms, free collection and delivery options, packaging materials, and ancillary services such as insurance and van hire; its facilities feature state-of-the-art security systems, 24/7 CCTV monitoring, climate-controlled units, and drive-up access at select sites. Founded in 1998 and headquartered in London, England, Big Yellow operates over 100 stores primarily in Greater London, the South East, and major urban centers, targeting residential movers, small businesses, e-commerce operators, and archival storage needs in the self storage industry. In recent developments, Big Yellow completed the acquisition of Your Storage Space in 2024, expanding its portfolio with additional facilities in the South East; the company also opened several new stores, including greenfield developments in high-demand areas like Bagshot and Letchworth, as part of its ongoing expansion strategy. It reported strong financial performance in fiscal year 2025, with revenue growth driven by higher occupancy rates and rental uplifts amid robust demand. Big Yellow continues to focus on sustainable operations, incorporating solar panels and energy-efficient designs in new builds, with no major reorganizations or name changes in the last two years.
