Accountancy for Fareham's Solent economy
Fareham has a genuinely mixed economy: marine and defence engineering around the Solent, the Solent Enterprise Zone and Daedalus at Lee-on-the-Solent, busy retail on West Street and at the Fareham Shopping Centre, and a fast-growing cluster of professional services and tech firms at Whiteley business park.
If you're running an engineering workshop, a marine trade or vans and plant, we keep the bookkeeping tight and the VAT, CIS and payroll right; if you're scaling a firm at Whiteley or Daedalus, we give you the management numbers to make decisions. Either way, explained without the jargon.
