Business advisory and transformation services

We chose Kreston Reeves initially for help with a small piece of work in relation to succession planning for a family company and some advice on the setup of a... More new entity in collaboration with a leading UK based University (The University of Nottingham). We were surprised with the level of involvement from a senior member of the firm and the time that was taken to really understand our business even in the very small initial pieces of work. As would be expected Kreston Reeves helped with the technical aspect of setting up a new company and have also become auditors for that company but more importantly, given all the initial time that the team, especially Andrew Griggs, spent getting to know the business has meant that they have been able to provide more holistic advice and guidance and as a result they are now very much trusted advisors. This has meant we have spoken to them in relation to employee options schemes, setup of an EU based company post Brexit amongst other things. It very much feels like we could contact someone at Kreston Reeves and receive impartial but informed advice that fully considers the corporate structure of our organisation. It is not cookie cutter advice but tailored to our needs. Our previous advisor was a smaller firm than Kreston Reeves and didn’t have the global reach. Kreston Reeves have been able to offer globally focused advice to support our company who have significant trade in both the EU and USA. Kreston Reeves stand out though in the approach taken to really get to know our organisation they are also willing to give considered and evidence based views. KR have made a difference as they have assisted us with setting up our organisation to support future growth. On a personal level I feel that the relationship with Andrew means I have someone who I am able to pick-up the phone to in order to get considered, relevant and thoughtful advice. Andrew is also not afraid to challenge initial ideas and on a number of occasions this challenge has led to an enhanced end result. David Woolger, Managing Director of Cerca Magnetics Limited and Magnetic Shields Limited

We opened our first UK club in 2012 and Kreston Reeves has been our trusted advisor in assisting us every step of the way. Prior to our entry into the...

Andrew and the team at Kreston Reeves smoothly and effectively led us through the sale of our business. While we were under no pressure to sell, we expected the procedure... More to be complicated and time consuming for us, which we found daunting. Their technical expertise and attention to detail throughout the process was excellent. Each stage of this complex transaction was explained in terms we could understand and they reassured us throughout. Along with this technical advice we were impressed at how Andrew and his team really understood how we felt about the sale – knowing it was more than just a transaction for us. We were highly impressed by how Kreston Reeves, through their various services and contacts, ensured we obtained the best all round from the sale of the company. However, what stood out for us the most was the personal and approachable service we received and the genuine interest they had in our business. The advice was open and forthcoming, and we were able to pick up the phone with ease. I trusted them through the whole process and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Kreston Reeves to others!
