tax planning
At The CAC we are here to ensure you benefit from all the tax relief that is entitled to be claimed by you and your catering business. Examples of our where we add value is reclaiming VAT on pre-registration purchases, maximising the tax relief on strategic capital item expenditure and advising on stock management. For one of our clients this meant saving as much as £30,000 every year in tax! No matter what the tax our team are trained to ensure you pay the right amount of tax, nothing more..
Business Growth
More than half of businesses that set up fail within the first 12 months. The reason for this is lack of planning of what numbers drive your business; How much cash do you need as working capital? What level of sales is required to break even? In what ways can you improve your profit margins? The questions may be easy to understand, but knowing the ways to improve those numbers is tricky.
Within our team we employ business consultants that can show you how to improve profitability without taking on more work and provide access to free non-repayable funds to help launch and maintain your business. It is through our investment in the latest software and training that we provide the tools for long term success.
