Stockton-based Onyx Group has achieved another year of strong growth.
The IT infrastructure and support provider, which is also celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, has reported a 13% rise in underlying growth for 2013.
Turnover for the company, which employs more than 120 staff, is now approaching the £20million mark.
Bosses say the sharp rise, which “goes against the grain in tough market conditions”, has been driven by businesses embracing reliable and flexible technologies such as cloud computing and data hosting.
Onyx Group, based at Portrack Interchange Business Park, was one of the early suppliers of cloud and data centre services.
Bosses say it has maintained its position as market leader by “actively investing in its award winning infrastructure” over the years.
Last year saw six-figure investments made to enhance the company’s Cloud Platform with Hitachi Data Systems hardware.
It also grew its data centre estate with further development of the Edinburgh and Sheffield sites, bringing its overall hosting space to 70,000 sq ft.
Neil Stephenson, CEO of Onyx, pictured above, aid: “As a company we believe that highly effective IT is at the core of business success, we have invested in the very best so that we can take the hassle and risk out of IT, allowing companies to focus on what is most important to them – developing themselves.
“Technology in 2013 was dominated by ‘Cloud computing’ and ‘Big Data’ and Onyx Group were prepared to embrace the opportunities they created to grow the company.
“We have been selling cloud and data solutions for over a decade and it is this longevity of delivering superior solutions that has created our credibility in the field.”
“Technology is a real growth sector in the UK, with rates predicted to escalate over the coming years.
“We are in a fantastic position to take advantage of this and I look forward to driving the company forward for the next 20 years.”
