Wbg joins Ayrshire Chamber of Commerce

Wbg, Scotland-based independent specialist accounting, tax, and audit firms, has joined Ayrshire Chamber of Commerce to offer support to the local business community through the provision of expert business advice not readily available elsewhere in the region.By joining Ayrshire Chamber of Commerce, the group intends to offer employees of fellow member firms access to its Financial Wellbeing Programme that provides debt advice to employees that are struggling with debt offered by its Consumer Debt team. 

The move follows the recent opening of Wbg’s Prestwick office at 104 Main Street,headed up by director Andrew Flinn. 

As part of a new office network, the business has consolidated John Kerr and Co. in Saltcoats and Nicolsons in Kilmarnock under a single unified brand. As a result, the company now operates out of six main locations: Aberdeen, Ayrshire, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Lanarkshire, and Manchester.

Scott Grant, Wbg’s Business Development director, added: “Financial wellbeing is increasingly recognised as a crucial aspect of overall employee wellbeing, impacting both personal lives and workplace productivity. 

“Another area of expertise we can offer local firms is specialist R&D tax advice. I suspect that some fellow member firms will currently be paying boutique companies a hefty sum for R&D work that we can provide more cost-effectively.”

Lisa Stewart, Ayrshire Chamber of Commerce Membership Development officer, concluded: “I’m delighted to welcome Wbg to the Chamber and am sure its comprehensive range of specialist business services will prove to be of great benefit to the local business community.”
