Retail

Traditional ‘bricks and mortar’ retailers are facing unprecedented challenges, not least of which are the combined pressures of high business rates and stiff price competition from online-only competitors.

Today’s retailers must be responsive and flexible; able to move quickly to adapt to changing market conditions and capitalise on consumer trends.

We are advisers to retailers of all sizes and business models, helping business owners and directors to meet today’s financial challenges and ensure they remain competitive and relevant in a changing marketplace.

Our experts work closely with business owners and their key management teams, taking time to understand the business, so that a bespoke service can be provided that concentrates on the issues that affect the company and the owner as the company goes through its different stages of growth.

We can assist with:

• Private Equity transactions.
• Capital allowance reports.
• Turnover certificate for leases.
• Internal control reviews.
• Due Diligence for acquisitions and disposals.
• Research & Development Tax Credits.
• Shareholder tax planning.
• Audit and Assurance.
