In Connecticut, more than half of the top 100 companies are manufacturing businesses. At Blum Shapiro, we're proud to say that many of these companies are our clients.
Our Manufacturing/Distribution Industry Group is made up of a team of accountants and consultants who are committed to keeping your business on track. We offer accurate, timely information with personal attention all year long, not just right before your taxes are due. In addition to tax and auditing services, our team can review your employee benefits plan, tighten internal controls and help prepare the documentation to get necessary financing to keep your business growing. Or, if you need advice on sales tax issues, tracking inventory control or meeting technology demands, we can help.
Every day we perform tax, audit and compliance work for manufacturers and distributors, both large and small. We support clients in Connecticut, in New England and beyond. Steel makers, paper companies, construction wholesalers, oil and gas distributors and aerospace corporations are just a few of the specialty industries we serve. And, to meet the growing global needs of our clients, we tap the resources of Baker Tilly International, an association of fine regional firms located worldwide.
Our commitment to our clients doesn't end there. Every year, Blum Shapiro partners with the Connecticut Business & Industry Association for its statewide business survey. Along with the CBIA, we've also created a special manufacturing survey report. This survey offers us valuable insight into the unique challenges manufacturers and distributors face. Industry leaders have taught us that they are most concerned about the cost of doing business in Connecticut, a lack of qualified workers and skyrocketing health care costs.
International Resources
Nearly 200,000 Connecticut residents work in manufacturing.1 Every day, the products they make arrive on local store shelves, or are shipped nationwide, even worldwide. Of course, a global enterprise brings new challenges from managing inventories, to tracking global shipments, and understanding international accounting, audit and tax regulations. As more and more Connecticut businesses prepare to compete in the global marketplace they need international advisors. Blum Shapiro's Manufacturing/Distribution Industry Group relies upon a network of resources from London to Hong Kong through our relationship with Baker Tilly International. Our clients can work directly with advisors in every city and/or country where they do business. It doesn't matter if you make paper, plastics, cosmetics or telecommunications equipment, you can count on a team of experienced professionals for guidance. And, our clients range from $20M operations to $400M corporations. So whether your company competes worldwide, or that is one of your strategic goals, we can help.
