Cosmetic manufacturing company in the USA
The Client
Our client is a cosmetic manufacturer in the USA that takes a unique and innovative approach to restoring the vital balance of minerals in the human body by reactivating the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Their problem was that they didn’t have any proper accounting and finance system in place.
They approached us asking to do the accounts for the last three years. However, our analysis showed us many gaps in their process such as lost source documents and incomplete books. Additionally, we spoke to their banks and gathered the data on behalf of the client. We managed to capture everything and advised customers on how to streamline the accounting process.
