The move builds on our recent expansion across the country. Earlier this year, we established offices in Swansea, Pembroke and Llanelli, followed by the addition of Task Accounting earlier this month, extending our presence into North Wales.

The addition of Sage & Co strengthens that position further, adding a well-established team in St Asaph and continuing to build coverage across the region.

Sage & Co supports owner managed businesses with accounts, tax and advisory services and has built strong relationships with clients across North Wales.

Shaun Knight, CEO at bk plus, said: “We’ve made a strong start in Wales this year, and that has been driven by what we’re hearing from clients.

More businesses are looking for broader support, but they still want to work with people who understand their local market and the challenges they face day to day.

By continuing to grow our presence across the country, we’re able to offer that. Local teams, working closely with their clients, backed by the wider expertise of the group.

Bringing Sage & Co into bk plus strengthens that further, with a team that knows its clients well and shares the same approach.

Since entering the market earlier this year, we’ve built a strong presence across the country. With six offices now in place, we’re quickly becoming one of the leading firms supporting SMEs across Wales.”

Chris Morgans, Partner at Sage & Co, said: “Joining bk plus allows us to continue supporting our clients as we always have, now with access to a broader range of expertise.

It gives us the ability to do more for our clients while keeping the relationships that matter.”

The Sage & Co team will continue to operate from their St Asaph office as part of bk plus, ensuring continuity for clients across the region.

The acquisition forms part of our continued national growth. Since launching in 2021, we have grown to almost 50 offices with a team approaching 1000 people.

Since launching in 2021, we have brought together established regional firms to support SMEs with local advice backed by national expertise.
