York-based accountancy firm Hunter Gee Holroyd has partnered with Synergy Commercial Finance to strengthen its services to offer a broader range of financial solutions to clients.
The firm sought to expand its services beyond traditional accounting support after recognising the evolving needs of clients in the aftermath of the pandemic and a turbulent market economy.
As a result, managing director Mark Grewer’s plan to assist clients in securing the necessary finance led him to Synergy Commercial Finance, which was introduced to him by Nick Simpson, CEO of AFS Group Holdings, the parent company of Synergy.
The two companies first collaborated on an informal basis, with HGH referring “ad-hoc” financial enquiries to Synergies. The success of these ventures prompted the decision to formalise the partnership by actively promoting Synergy’s services within the firm’s client base.
Grewer said: “The initial pilot engagement resulted in three successful loans for clients with diverse needs: property development financing, premises refurbishment, and investment in a retail outlet. In all three cases, the client feedback was excellent.
“This positive experience paved the way for the formalisation of the partnership between Hunter Gee Holroyd and Synergy Commercial Finance.”
Piotr Twaits, managing director of Synergy Commercial Finance, added: “As a service-oriented business, we fully understand the importance of reputation and the need to deliver a customer experience that aligns with Hunter Gee Holroyd’s own standards.
“It is a true pleasure to work with a team that genuinely values its customers and goes the extra mile to help their businesses thrive.”
Hunter Gee Holroyd was founded 90 years ago and has established itself as a trusted provider of “plain-speaking” financial advice to owner-managed and family-owned businesses.
