Team EHT

Kyle Eccclestone - Founder and President, Ecclestone Horse Transport (EHT)

Kyle Ecclestone

Founder and President


Founder and President Kyle Ecclestone is a lifelong equestrian with a passion for both horses and logistics. He grew up riding hunters and jumpers before expanding into the breed sport disciplines with Friesians and Saddlebreds. Kyle and his wife, Lawren, operate a small KWPN jumper breeding program, and Lawren competes a string of top-level jumpers throughout Canada and the United States. Kyle’s passion for harness horses continues today through his ownership of several top Friesian stallions.


In 2017, Kyle was recognized as “Entrepreneur of the Year” by the CFDC for his development of EHT. In 2025, Ecclestone Horse Transport was named Show Jumping Sponsor of the Year by Equestrian Canada. After celebrating 10 years in business, EHT entered its second decade in 2026 as the Official Transporter of Equestrian Canada and Ontario Equestrian — a milestone that reflects Kyle’s ongoing commitment to the growth and development of equestrian sport in Canada.
