Local Accountancy firm David Allen is thrilled to be celebrating 25 years in business.
In April, the renowned firm celebrate 25 years of David Allen and are marking the occasion with a series of special initiatives and events.
The evolvement of the local brand is an incredible story. Founder of the business, David Allen, turned 30 in December 1996 and decided it was time to do things differently. He wanted to start up his own business offering technical expertise but with outstanding customer service at the heart of the company’s values, and in April 1997 David Allen Accountants was launched.
The David Allen brand was built on humble beginnings, initially from a garage conversion offering Chartered accountancy services, then in August 2001 moving into the purpose built Dalmar House, Dalston, then later in October 2007 a 3-storey extension was built to house the ever expanding team.
The firm now consists of over 140 people, across five office locations, with expert services in accountancy, tax advice, payroll, debt recovery, investments and pensions, as well as IT support.
Reflecting on the firm’s incredible journey, David Allen, Partner said, ‘Setting up my own business was an enormous step to take, but certainly the best thing I ever chose to do. I was starting from scratch, with a mortgage to pay and family to think of, with no clients on my books. To look at how far we’ve come is incredibly rewarding.
‘I wanted to start a business that provided exceptional technical expertise but deliver exceptional customer service levels too. It was a great ethos to start a business on and we are still committed to that very same ethos 25 years later. I am excited for the next 25 years as we continue to grow. We have some fantastic plans to develop our people, continue to recruit the leading technical experts and continue doing a great job for our customers.’
Alison Welton, Managing Partner further commented, ‘Our business has continued to grow year on year, and an extensive proportion of that has been due to offering extraordinary levels of customer service and by providing consistently reliable premium business solutions to businesses and organisations across the region, thereby receiving amazing client referrals. This year we are immensely proud to be celebrating 25 years in business, not only celebrating our expansion and success, but celebrating all the amazing people involved in our journey.’
The team at David Allen are now busy preparing for their birthday celebrations, which will include a silver-themed bake off judged by local baker, Gillian Potts, to raise funds for the firm’s charity of the year, the Calvert Trust. Staff will be thrown a 25 year birthday party, which will be a family fun day extravaganza in the summer, as well as receiving a silver commemorative water bottle. A business with community at the heart of everything they do, there is also a ‘creative cow’ competition for local children to get involved with, whereby the winning entry will receive a prize and their creation hung pride of place at the Dalston head office.
We have built up a fantastic reputation locally, by working both practically and proactively to help our clients succeed, with client service at the heart of everything we do.
