Mine are rolled, same as they arrive and left on a storage shelf. I use them up quickly, so don't do more than that. However, once a product has been made, those go into plastic storage containers, to reduce sunlight, dust etc, until sold. I keep vegetable tanned and chrome separate.

I roll my leather around those long cardboard rolls that fabric is sold from, in fabric stores. I got my first ones at an estate sale - people bought the fabric and left the rolls behind. These really help in the rolling and prevents the innermost layer from creasing. It also allows me to keep the rolls upright and takes up less space. I keep the cardboard roll more exposed on  one side and place the rolls upright supported on that side, in a dark closet. No plastic but I wrap the whole lot in an old, cotton sheet. I sprinkle dried neem leaves to protect from insects and a couple of packets of desiccants to manage humidity (very humid where I live) The neem leaves do not stain and do not leave an unpleasant odor. I  also use some cedar wood sachets. One can never be too careful!
