Oleksandr Logvin — Entrepreneur of the Year in the category “Consumer Services and City Infrastructure 2025”
Oleksandr Logvin became an innovator in the self-storage market in Ukraine, launching Cherdak in 2017 with personal savings of just $5,000. His idea has grown into the most famous consumer storage brand in the country. In difficult times, including a period of full-scale war, the company not only maintained its presence in the market, but also demonstrated impressive resilience – the occupancy rate of facilities was consistently at 90-95%. Under Logvin’s leadership, the Cherdak storage service introduced innovations: electronic contracts, online access to warehouses, automated services and even elements of artificial intelligence into internal processes.
Today, Cherdak is not just a business, but an example of national success. The company was the first in Ukraine to receive recognition from both European and national organizations for the quality of service in the field of self-storage. Over the years, the network has served over 2,000 clients and has seen rapid growth in demand, especially after 2022, when the need for secure storage increased significantly. Today, the company unites a network of locations with a total area of over 2,500 m² and supports a wide range of services — from short-term cell rental for individuals (B2C) to fulfillment for small and medium-sized e-commerce.
Thanks to the high level of service, Cherdak received prestigious awards: “Choice of the Year 2024” in the category of “mini-warehouse near home” storage service network of the year, “Choice of the Country” for the quality of services and the personal award “Professional of the Year” for Oleksandr Logvin himself. He is also an official member of FEDESSA — the Federation of European Self-Storage Associations.
The company’s success is actively covered in Ukrainian and international media. Forbes Ukraine, Delo.ua, The Page and FEDESSA magazine talked about Cherdak as a market leader that is shaping a new storage culture in the urban environment. Logvin himself has repeatedly acted as an expert in business media, analyzing market development, the role of technology, the investment attractiveness of self-storage and the importance of corporate responsibility. In his publications, he emphasizes that self-storage is not just renting square meters, but an infrastructure solution that changes the approach to organizing space.
Special attention deserves the trust of customers. The company has over 200 reviews with an average rating of 4.95, which indicates a consistently high level of user satisfaction. Its services are used by both large companies and ordinary Ukrainians who need a convenient, reliable and safe place to store their things.
The history of the Attic company began with a personal need to find space for their belongings. Today, it is a service that helps thousands of people solve spatial challenges in turbulent reality every day. And it is this transformation — from an idea to a recognized brand — that is the main achievement of Oleksandr Logvin.
