Founder and MD Sid Sethi

Manchester eyewear company Specscart has been recognised as one of the fastest-growing firms in the UK by the 2024 UK Fast Growth Index. 

Aiming to end the financial year with a £5m turnover milestone, the Bury-based optical firm made the North of England Fast Growth 50 list. 

At the UK Fast Growth Awards on November 28 in London, Specscart's ranked as 23rd in the index list, recording a £2m turnover in 2023, and resulting in a 199.8% growth rate between 2021-2023.  

Specscart founder and managing director Sid Sethi said: ‘I know from our online orders, staff headcount and footfalls in our shops that Specscart is growing rapidly so this award is a fantastic recognition of that. 

‘Our growth is huge but our plans are even bigger – with US expansion, a late-night production lab and an industry-leading new website on the cards over the next 12 months – so watch this space,’ he added.
