SLI Capital CEO Bryan Kane and Madison Capital CEO Ryan Hanks announced today that their firms have purchased a controlling interest in Green Space, a self-storage company with an innovative proprietary concept that constructs self-storage facilities out of stacked shipping containers.
"We believe that the Green Space technology provides profound innovation in the self-storage space and the investment alongside SLI Capital will provide the growth capital and operational expertise needed to take Green Space to the next level," said Madison Capital CEO Ryan Hanks.
"Our goal is to grow the company rapidly due to its advantage in construction speed and superior basis while the balance of the traditional self-storage market is soft," said SLI CEO Bryan Kane. "Through partnering with the Madison Capital team, we will have immediate operating expertise and scale enabling us to ramp up quickly."
"We found the perfect partners in SLI and Madison. Their principals bring the capital markets knowledge and operations experience we needed to take our self-storage concept to new heights," said Green Space founder David Ledoux.
The deal closed on February 2, 2024.
