The staff at three UK Storage Co. Ltd. properties will hand out 2,000 doughnuts to community members on Oct. 6 to celebrate the grand opening of the company’s new self-storage facility in Redruth, Cornwall, England. The facility on Cardrew Way opened in July.
The company’s facilities in Camborne and Falmouth will also participate. UK Storage Co. offered the pastries following the opening of its facility in Plymouth and received some “strange looks,” John Lamb, a company representative, told the source. “Some people think we’re trying to sell something and others think we’re a bakery, but most appreciate the thought,” he said.
The company opted for doughnuts over fliers to show it’s “a friendly, approachable company and doughnuts just seemed right,” Lamb told the source.
UK Storage Co. operates facilities in Bristol, Bridgewater, Chard, Gloucester, Plymouth, Redruth and Taunton.
