Episode 207: Slow Burn, Smart Scale: How Store4U Built a National Brand | Paul Gamartin
“If you want something badly enough, you’ll find a way. The car has a reverse gear for a reason.” - Paul Gamartin, Founder & CEO, Store4U.
In this episode, AIBF CEO Elaine Carroll chats with Paul Gamartin, the entrepreneur behind Store4U, Ireland’s fastest-growing storage network. From insulation and energy to storage and tech, Paul’s story is a masterclass in staying curious, building strong teams, and scaling what others overlook.

Scaling slow: patience, planning, and smart risk-taking.
Funding reality: how to grow capital-heavy ventures when banks say no.
People fit: why the wrong hire costs more than no hire.
Customer-first model: design the business around what people actually need.
Tech edge: make it easy for customers without losing the human touch.
