Globalisation, increasing competition, staff shortages and complex legal frameworks – the retail sector faces a wide range of challenges. Whether you operate in brick-and-mortar retail, wholesale or e-commerce, strong tax and business advice helps you unlock your full potential and achieve sustainable success.

Our experienced team of experts supports you with comprehensive know-how – from optimising your gross margins to structuring tax-efficient cross-border supply chains. We assist with inventory valuation, review your pricing calculations and ensure compliance with VAT regulations – whether for intra-community supplies, drop-shipping or One-Stop-Shop reporting.

We also provide practical advice on franchise systems, lease and rental agreements, and cash register regulations. Your bookkeeping and payroll are prepared efficiently, digitally and transparently. In addition, we prepare your annual financial statements with a focus on tax optimisation and provide the key figures and benchmark analysis you need for informed decision-making.
