A HYNDBURN based digital marketing specialist has created more than 20 new jobs with the help of a £29,928 financial boost from the council’s No Limits Finance for Growth programme.

Church company Reach Global Ltd was founded in 2002 by brothers Sohail and Israr Sarwar, as a digital marketing specialist for small and medium sized enterprises.

The company has since diversified into many new areas of digital commerce and developed a high technology group of companies, who are at the forefront in digital marketing, media and property sales.

Sohail said: “To help our growth plans we needed to make significant investments in IT and telephony infrastructure upgrades.

“This has undoubtedly allowed the company to increase both efficiency and production, employ more staff and make the business more robust.”

Hyndburn’s deputy council leader Coun Peter Clarke said: “Reach Global are really bucking the current economic trend.

"I’m delighted that the No Limits cash boost has helped them to increase their profit margins and allowed them to employ 22 extra people.”
