Health and safety provides a lift for Horizon Platforms

Horizon Platforms began trading in January 2008. It was established by business partners Ben Hirst and Rory Duggan.

They were joined by financial director Lindsay Tarrant, a former forensic accountant who used to work in LS1, but he saw the company’s potential when he arrived at the headquarters in Ossett.

Latest trading figures show it turned over £4.8m in 2012 with a strong balance sheet.
