Our facility in Evesham \u2013 that we developed with Hortons\u2019 \u2013 has recently been voted the number one self-storage facility in Europe, and we have aspirations that our Rubery operation will continue to lead the way in the UK self-storage industry.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">James Slater of Hortons\u2019, said: \u201cHortons\u2019 development of Birmingham Great Park has supported local regeneration through investment and employment opportunities. We are delighted to see that trend continue through the opening of Squab\u2019s new multi-activity centre, which will offer flexible space to suit the needs of local small businesses. We have enjoyed a successful relationship with Squab over the last five years and it is pleasing to see another Midlands-based business continuing to thrive.
