GuardeAqui, founded in 2006 and based in São Paulo, is Brazil’s first and leading self-storage operating company serving both commercial and residential tenants. The company owns and operates three facilities in Lapa, Liberdade and Santo Amaro with approximately 23,000 square meters (about 248,000 sq ft) of leasable space. GuardeAqui has effectively established the self-storage industry in Brazil and is the dominant national owner/operator with a robust development pipeline and first-mover advantage. Its facilities are built to international standards, featuring security, drive-through access, loading docks, information systems and customer support. The company plans to open new locations throughout Brazil and aims to create a national platform. Given the nascent state of the Brazilian self-storage sector (roughly 50 facilities nationwide), GuardeAqui is positioned for accelerated growth.
