BUSINESSMEN David Hurst and Mark Hurlbut have their sights firmly set on success.

The pair have become the 50th start-up company to take part in the FirmBase scheme in Burnley by launching Eye Site.

The spectacle factory shop in Briercliffe shopping centre has already taken on two new staff since it was launched earlier this year.

"Although both of us had experience in the business, it was reassuring to know Burnley Enterprise Trust was keeping a watchful eye on our progress," said David.

"The FirmBase programme was invaluable and saved us time and money with good business advice, information and support."
