Lok’nStore hat-trick for construction contractor

Warwick-based contractor MCS Group has secured contracts to deliver a trio of self-storage facilities at sites across the country for one of the leading names in the sector.

The company has been appointed by Lok’nStore, the fast growing self-storage company, on its developments at Winwick Road, Warrington, Pantheon Park, Wolverhampton, and Gunnells Wood Road, Stevenage.

Lok’nStore, which was established in 1995, is expanding across the country and has launched new facilities at locations including Ipswich, Hemel Hempstead, Leicester, Gloucester, Wellingborough and Gillingham.

MCS Group, which has worked alongside Lok’nStore for several years to deliver purpose-built storage facilities for personal or business customers, has recently started on site at all three projects.

Alan Shadbolt, group commercial director at MCS Group, said: “We’ve got a very successful, longstanding relationship with Lok’nStore. It is a very ambitious company and we are delighted to be instructed to deliver its new developments at Warrington, Wolverhampton and Stevenage.

“Our teams are already on site and the groundworks teams are making great progress.”

Lok’nStore chief executive Andrew Jacobs said: “Our objective remains to grow by both acquiring more sites to build new landmark stores for Lok’nStore’s own balance sheet and to increase the number of stores we manage under the Lok’nStore brand for third parties. We are delighted to be working with MCS Group to create three new stores, bringing our facilities to communities across the country.”
