A COMPANY to count on is the latest winner of a monthly business award.

Liquid Accounts, based at Longwood, impressed the judges in the competition run by Huddersfield law firm Eaton Smith and the Lockwood-based Mid Yorkshire Chamber of Commerce.

The company combines IT and accountancy skills to provide an internet-based accountancy package for firms of all sizes. Its software can be accessed, updated and run from any location – a concept often referred to as “cloud accounting”.

It means companies, managers and work teams are no longer restricted by the confines of their server, networked systems and four walls.

With more developments in the pipeline, Liquid Accounts is expanding its customer base – making it a worthy winner of the Eaton Smith Award.

Richard Holmes, operations director at Liquid Accounts, said: “We are delighted to add the Business of the Month Award to our trophy cabinet.

“This award really means as much to us as our recent national awards, because of our local roots.

“We’re a Huddersfield company and we have a strong bond with this part of Yorkshire.”

The award is open to all companies in Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield.
