Allsafe is an organization dedicated to providing space and creating a more spacious life, both personally and professionally. They strive to make things easier to manage. The concept of mini-storage (self-storage) originated in America and has been a well-known phenomenon there for some time. Until recently, this option did not exist in the Netherlands. Due to the precious nature of space in the Netherlands, entrepreneur Eric Stubbé founded Allsafe in 1999 to provide that desired space. In May 1999, the first branch was opened in Amsterdam West, making Allsafe the oldest company in the Netherlands offering outdoor storage for both companies and private individuals.
The company currently has 42 locations, with 10 in development, spread throughout the Netherlands, which enable both private and business storage. The ambition is to grow to 400 branches within ten years.
Allsafe currently offers various products and services, such as Mini Storage for household effects, archives, facility storage, webshop service, supplies, and so on. Also included are Robotic Storage, Mr. Box, BandenThuis for replacing and changing winter and summer tires, Engine Rooms as a hotel for cars and motorcycles, and a Logistics Hub are among the offerings. In addition, a number of web shops fall under the Allsafe flag, including cheapverhuisdozen.nl, which serve as lead generators for the Mini Storage.
The company is constantly innovating. For example, Allsafe has the scoop of the first Robotic Self Storage in Utrecht and will soon open a similar branch in Amsterdam. Through the My Allsafe app, customers can perform various tasks such as identification, unlocking and calling up their storage unit – all done easily via their mobile phone. This innovative system, developed in collaboration with Dutch parties, is a novelty outside the United States. The company has also developed the Allsafe Engine Rooms, a hotel for cars and motorcycles, where vehicles are safely stored.
The current challenge for management is to take the company to the next phase of faster growth. The ambition is to expand in a controlled manner and grow internationally to 400 branches in the coming years.
We are very curious about who you are! And of course we are happy to answer any questions you may have. Your response will be kept strictly confidential.
