Accountants for the fashion industry

In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different

It gets a bad rep for being frivolous and vain, but fashion for many is a form of expression. Working in the business is hard and super competitive. We know the struggles and are here to help.

It looks so glam, until you work in the industry

Most industries are competitive these days but fashion is on a whole new level.

Pressure from consumers to keep the cost low but at the same time pressure to not use cheap labour or questionable materials (and rightly so).

More focus on waste and ethical supply chains is great for the people and the planet, but it makes it very hard to create sustainable profits.

Fashion brands have to maintain a healthy business, meet quality and ethical standards and stay creative all whilst the core audience wants to pay less then every before for a single item.

It’s very tough.

Those who are up for that challenge – we salute you.
