BWR Chartered Accountants - Hawke's Bay

BWR Chartered Accountants - Hawke's Bay More than accountants. Since 1907, BWR has been the first call for Hawke's Bay families, farmers and businesses, for the big decisions and the everyday ones.

Local. Personal. Practical. BWR is proud of its history and origins dating back to the early 1900’s, and we’re also proud to say we’re still a 100% locally owned and operated Hawke's Bay business. Like a number of the families we act for, we’ve been around for a long time, our feet are well and truly cemented in the heart of this fantastic region, and we plan to be around supporting business in th

e Bay for a long time to come. Although the firm has evolved over the years and personnel have come and gone, the underlying values of respect, trust, and a total commitment to service and support have never changed. This commitment to helping our clients build a better life, and our desire to walk alongside our clients as they take their unique journey is why we have clients that stay with us generation after generation. Brown Webb Richardson Ltd was formed in 2002 by the merger of two remarkably longstanding Hawke's Bay Chartered Accountancy firms. This combined the two very like cultures of Richardson Epplett and Partners (originally formed as McCulloch Butler and Spence in 1907) and Brown Webb Limited (originally formed as R D Brown and Co in 1921).

Your accounting software should make business easier, not more confusing.

The right setup can help you save time, reduce double handling, stay on top of your numbers, and make better decisions with more confidence.

At BWR, we help businesses choose, set up, and get more out of their accounting software, so the numbers are clearer and the day-to-day admin feels easier to manage.

If your current system feels clunky, confusing, or disconnected, it might be time to review whether it is still the right fit for your business.

Cashflow is one of the biggest pressure points in business, especially when money isn't always where you need it, when you need it.

Good cashflow management helps you understand what is happening now, what is coming next, and where potential pressure points may appear before they become bigger problems.

At BWR, we help businesses get clearer visibility over their cashflow, so they can plan ahead, make informed decisions, and move forward with more confidence.
