  • “The launch of Berry Bros. & Rudd Limited’s Japanese branch in November 2008 required the support of a knowledgeable, reliable and professional accounting firm and we were therefore fortunate to find all of these qualities working with the Nagamine & Mishima Accounting Office.

    Since assisting us with the initial set-up, N&M have managed our monthly and year-end Accounts as well as handling our Payroll, ensuring compliance with Tax regulations and filing annual Tax Returns and supervising year-end stock counts.  They respond to all queries in a very timely manner, their work is of a high consistency and their approach friendly.

    With N&M assistance we have confidence in the controls and integrity of the accounting information for our Japanese operations.”
