About UKFast
Established in 1999, UKFast have grown to employ 60 members of staff and currently reside at the top of City Tower in Manchester. The company is privately owned and profitable, active amongst the local community and involved with charities in the area.
In 2008, UKFast won an ISPA best hosting award for the fourth year running. At their win in 2007 they were hailed as the "runaway winner in the business hosting category". Lawrence Jones, managing director, said: "It is a welcome pat on the back from our industry's governing body, however there is still much we can do to continually improve in every aspect of the business."
