JT Spas has experienced steady growth over the past five years and to help the company achieve its full potential it has recently employed a new online marketing executive with support from Invest NI's Job Fund.
During a visit to the company Gren Armstrong, Invest NI’s North Eastern Regional Manager, commended Tracy McKnight on winning the Young Business Person of the Year award at the recent Larne Business Awards.
He said: "This energetic and ambitious firm is already selling 95 per cent of its products to customers outside Northern Ireland.

As a result, Jim and Tracy will have more time to devote to growing their business."
