THE HARDER YOU WORK THE LUCKIER YOU GETStorage & the Self-Storage industry has been my life for all of the 31 years of my working life. In fact I have now been running my own businesses for well over half of my life! Anything you want to know about self storage & storage then I'm your man. I'm respected in the industry as one of the leading self-storage entrepreneurs in the UK.All time favourite quote, Prince Charles, "Andrew Donaldson is a prime example of the virtuous circle I had always hoped the Prince's Trust would create."I am proud to have won 21 business awards in my 31 years of business trading, 6 of which have been won by BiG Storage.I set-up Active Supply and Design with a £2000 loan from the Prince's Trust - Active sold over £300,000,000 of product before it’s sale in 2018 to Janus International, the world leading self-storage fit-out contractor. Now that’s what I call a return on capital.I am a great believer in putting something back in to society and the local community and have worked hard over the last three decade by investing my business expertise and intellectual capital in to making things happen in the sub-region of Cheshire & Warrington, and by also helping as many local good causes as possible.
