Lister Horsfall, a 120-year-old family-run jeweller, has expanded its Halifax operations with a £2.4 million funding package from NatWest and its asset finance partner, Lombard. The financing enabled the business to acquire and redevelop two neighbouring commercial units at its existing Corn Market site.
The redevelopment included energy efficiency upgrades to align with EPC standards and the installation of solar panels. The expanded premises now feature a dedicated Rolex showroom, a new service centre, and a workshop.
Six new jobs have been created as part of the growth, supporting increased customer demand and operational capacity. Lister Horsfall also operates a retail location in Ilkley and has been a NatWest client since 2018. The investment aligns with the business’s long-term expansion strategy.
