About Storo
The story of how Storo began
In 2019, Lennert and Johan were mainly working in residential real estate. After a few months of market research and a visit to a trade fair, they landed on self-storage, a sector that was still little known in Belgium at the time.
What they saw surprised them. With every provider, you had to sign your contract and collect your key on site. “This has to be done differently,” they thought. Renting a storage unit should be as smooth as ordering something from a good webshop.
In the spring of 2020, the first two locations opened, in Brecht and Mechelen. You booked online and immediately received an access code for the building and your box. Storo was thereby the first self-storage in Belgium where you could book entirely online. That is still how it works today, just in more places.
The team behind Storo
Storo is a true family business and is still run by a small, close-knit team that is ready to answer your questions about storage units.
Lennert
Co-founder – Managing Director
In 2019, Lennert founded Storo together with his father Johan. Why self-storage? Their market research left no doubt: the sector is growing rapidly in Belgium. With his passion for real estate and retail, the choice was quickly made.
Today he runs Storo day to day. The team automated everything, just like a webshop, and so Lennert unwittingly became half an IT person. His goal? To make self-storage as easy as online shopping.
After hours, he likes to sit down at the table with friends for a bite and a drink.
Jorinne
Managing Director
Jorinne joined in June 2022 to help speed up Storo’s growth story. Together with Lennert, she runs the company day to day. Her domain? Expansion, finance, legal affairs and marketing.
Before that, she worked for almost ten years at the Big Four, in international tax. A completely different world, but she brings those skills with her every day. That is how the team automates everything, from front end to back end. The goal: making room for what matters. A box you book in a few clicks, and a good feeling every time you walk into a Storo location.
Outside working hours, she is at the table with friends and family, on the tennis court, watching football or playing a game of cards.
Johan
Chairman
Johan has been active in property development for more than 25 years. Together with his son Lennert, he saw an opportunity in a sector that was still barely known in Belgium: self-storage. After thorough research in 2019, they took the leap. In 2020, the first two locations opened, in Mechelen and Brecht.
Today, Johan is the team’s sounding board. With his real estate experience, he scouts for new locations and helps draw up the layout of every new location.
In his free time, you will mostly find him on his racing bike.
Strong together behind the scenes
Lennert, Jorinne and Johan do not stand alone. Behind them is a team that keeps growing, each with their own role in the Storo story.
The expansion team scouts for new locations. The construction team makes sure those locations actually come to life. The colleagues in maintenance and operations keep every location neat, safe and in order, day after day. Marketing and sales make sure you find Storo at the moment you need extra space. And customer service is ready as soon as you have a question.
What binds them? They always look for a solution, not a problem. They answer quickly, because you would rather not wait. And they improve the service a little every day, so that storing with Storo becomes smoother and more carefree every time.
That way, everyone works toward the same goal: extra space without the hassle, for you.
