Happy 25th John Horsfall anniversary to Sue, our lead machinist! Sue joined the company in September 1999, working at our Elland based sewing facility when we only made blankets; and all of them were made in West Yorkshire! She has been with us through many changes, from introducing more mechanised production on our old AKAB machines, to running the small production line we retain in West Yorkshire and becoming an integral part of the R&D team that make and develop all types of John Horsfall products. Sue has always loved keeping busy at work and we continually put her skills to the test with projects that are far ranging as we all strive to find new, exciting and innovative products for our customers. We’re proud to be a company that supports and nurtures our team, making us stronger, more resilient & more creative #creativityinflight #25years #familybusiness #textileexperts #itswhoyoutravelwith
