Maritime Self-Storage Opens in Barrington Passage, Nova Scotia, Canada

Maritime Self-Storage opened this month in Barrington Passage, Nova Scotia, Canada. Owned by Randy Foubert and his wife, the property at 294 Stirl’s Road is in the Barrington Passage Business Park, near the business district and several coastal ports.

The couple, who are both teachers in their mid-40s, sought a business they can operate once they retire, according to the source. “We found Barrington was the perfect spot,” Foubert said. “In our research, we found it was one of the biggest communities in all of Canada that didn’t already have a facility.”

The property contains a variety of unit sizes, ranging from 5-by-10 to 10-by-20, which can store vehicles. Security measures include video cameras.

“I think Barrington is a little secret hideaway that the rest of the province doesn’t know about,” Foubert said. “[People] don’t realize how vibrant the area is.”
