The Investment Real Estate Group of Companies (IREGC), which operates the Moove In Self Storage brand, received the “Outstanding Large Business Award” in the 2024 Downtown First Awards from Downtown Inc., an organization that works to enhance and encourage investment in the central-business district of York, Pa. IREGC was recognized at an awards ceremony on Aug. 8 at Keystone Kidspace children’s museum in York for its significant contributions to the city and its strong commitment to the community, such as supporting the YWCA York Junior Board’s Adopt-A-Family program, assisting with local playground builds, donating $25,000 to 25 York-based nonprofits in honor of IREGC’s 25th anniversary, and contributing and hosting several annual downtown events.

 

“Our commitment to downtown York is rooted in a belief that thriving communities are built through active participation and meaningful investments,” said Chris Riley Sr., president and COO at IREGC.

 

Through the Gilliland Family Foundation, founded by CEO John Gilliland and wife Denise, IREGC also invests in local initiatives like the York Revolution and the White Rose Impact Fund. “Revitalizing historic buildings and fostering new partnerships within York is a part of our business, but it’s also our passion,” Gilliland said. “We look forward to continuing to be a part of this vibrant community for years to come.”

 

Founded in 1998, York, Pennsylvania-based IREGC operates more than 80 self-storage facilities across the mid-Atlantic, Northeast and Midwest. The company also includes Investment Real Estate, a provider of brokerage, construction, development and management services to self-storage owners and investors.
