About us

Our priority is to deliver first class client service

Business Orchard was originally established in 1979 by Howard Rissen, more recently as Business Orchard LLP. The practice has grown, and new partners joined the firm in 2014. Our clients love us because we solve their problems, take away the day to day finance hassle and know they can ask us for advice which is covered in our fixed fees.

We meet with our clients on a regular basis to monitor their business and provide proactive advice.

In addition to traditional auditing, accounting, and tax services we also provide advice on how to improve and develop your business. Whether you need an integrated business strategy, access to corporate finance or specialist tax advice we are here to help you achieve your goals. We also provide full outsourcing for your business and can act as back office.
