It honors long-standing members with a track record of bold decisions benefiting the company, community and beyond, according to a press release.
Gilliland has propelled the growth of IREGC to more than 100 employees in his various companies that specialize in self-storage acquisitions, construction, development, insurance and property management. He was inducted into the inaugural class of the Pennsylvania Self Storage Hall of Fame in 2018 and the national Self Storage Association Hall of Fame in 2020.
