I am Group Finance Director for the International Riding Company Limited, which incorporates the following companies, Harry Hall (on-line retailer of equestrian products and services), Stuncroft Limited (manufacturer and wholesaler of tailored clothing including bespoke MTM suits) and Huufe Limited (Equestrian App that uses GPS to track and trace your rides)
We appointed Clive Owen LLP in April 2017 and since then they have helped to undertake all audit, tax and R&D work for the group and its subsidiaries. Clive Owen have become a valued partner, acting as consultants on the strategic direction of the company.
Our business is unique with many differing options from manufacturing and retail to subscriptions and insurance – Clive Owen have added value by enabling us to provide shareholder wealth.
Providing informative solutions to strategic business decision making above and beyond the traditional role of auditors means that I would absolutely recommend Clive Owen for their continued proactive approach to the direction of the business.

BPP Visual Ltd are specialists in visual management and corporate signage.
We have been using Clive Owen LLP for six years from the day we set up BPP Visual as a limited company and moved into our new premises in Sunderland.
Kevin Shotton and the team at Clive Owen LLP provide ongoing monthly support to our organisation. Their services range from processing our monthly transactions in Xero, processing our payroll and quarterly VAT returns to R&D submissions, annual tax returns and yearly financial reviews.
The effect on our business from having this level of support from the team at Clive Owen LLP monthly has completely transformed the way our company operates. It has saved us countless hours and significant pain trying to manage this process ourselves and I can’t recommend their support highly enough.
The added confidence this brings knowing that our business is under control and that every transaction is accounted for each month lets us concentrate on what we are good at.
An additional function that Clive Owen LLP also provides for us is expert financial reviews, annually. This has helped us to understand not only how we have performed over the year but also provides the financial information we need to look at longer term planning from both a personal and business perspective.
If I could give any new start up business one line of advice, it would be to choose Clive Owen LLP to take care of their accounts and to provide advice on business finances. This will then give them the ability to concentrate on running the operational side of the business.

I have worked with Clive Owen LLP for over five years now and I would highly recommend their services. Historically we used Big 4 advisors and I am pleased we made the move as we very much feel a valued client of the firm.
Currently they act as auditors and assist with tax advisory and compliance work. In addition, we have worked with their grant advisory team in order to secure a grant to assist with our business growth.
Over the years they have developed a good understanding of our business, managing expectations and delivering to agreed timescales. This continued throughout the pandemic where through good communication and team work on both sides, we were able to sign off the 2020 audit in line with previous timescales whilst conducting the audit remotely.
The staff team are professional and flexible. Kevin Shotton is always available to support and provide proactive advice.
We get great service and support from the team at Clive Owen LLP.
