Siobhan McGarry, relationship manager at Allied Irish Bank (GB) in Leeds, which provided the funding, said: “Kevin is very passionate about what he does and has worked extremely hard to build the business to where it is today.

“Despite the challenges brought by Covid-19 the business continues to thrive.”

Mr Doyle added: “Allied Irish Bank (GB) have been very supportive of us over the years, through two recessions and now Covid-19.

“We now have a portfolio of three industrial estates and 14 self-storage sites, none of which would have been possible without their support.”
