Presentations will focus on areas of special interest to Latin American operators and investors, and exhibiting vendors will represent all aspects of the business, including building materials, insurance, marketing and security, officials said.

“With the overwhelming turnout at last year’s show, we all knew that this would become an annual event,” said David Blum, president of Better Management Systems LLC, a U.S.-based consultant who has assisted self-storage developers in several countries and one of the event’s producers. “The structure and content of this year’s show has been designed to address Latin market issues specifically. We all look forward to a marked increase in participation.”
