Accountants Stafford & Co acquire new Bolton premises with RBS funding

Accountancy firm Stafford & Co has invested in the acquisition of new premises in Bolton with funding from the Royal Bank of Scotland.

The company used to six-figure boost to purchase a three-level office on Chorley Old Road that includes dedicated client meeting rooms.

Stafford & Co, which provides services such as accountancy, audit, business growth and tax advice, was founded in 2003 and today employs a team of nine. The firm plans to create an additional two roles in the near future.

Rob Stafford, the managing partner at Stafford & Co, said: “We are an incredibly forward-thinking firm and as such, growth has been our key focus during the last few years.

Rob explained that due to continued growth, Stafford & Co’s former premises were no longer suited to the company’s needs.

RBS senior relationship manager Steve Molyneux said: “The new premises provide Stafford & Co with an ideal base from which to continue to grow.

“It has been great to work alongside Rob to enable him to invest in his firm’s long term future and to lay new foundations on which to expand his business from.”
