Are prices protecting the margin?
See how food, drink, packaging and channel fees affect what you keep. Detailed menu or department reporting depends on the operating data available.
Do staffing costs fit the trade?
Review payroll alongside revenue and trading patterns. Use clearer numbers when considering opening hours, staffing levels or a new hire.
Can cash cover the quieter months?
Bring supplier payments, payroll and tax commitments into view. Add a forecast to plan for seasonality, equipment or expansion.
Reporting and forecasting depth depend on your agreed scope and reliable sales, purchasing, payroll and stock records.
From the till to the bank—and the accounts.
Sales and settlements
POS takings, cash, card receipts, delivery platforms and booking channels can arrive at different times, after different fees. We agree a reconciliation process around your systems.
Stock, payroll and VAT
Current purchasing, stock and staff records help explain the result. We agree responsibilities, review VAT treatment across your sales categories and keep filing deadlines in view.
“Around Finance helped me move from Excel to Xero. They’ve taken the bookkeeping off my hands and are always available if I need a quick chat.”
For operators who need more than year-end accounts.
Usually a fit
- An established restaurant, café, hotel, bar or hospitality group
- A growing food or drink business with recurring accounting needs
- Generally from around €250k turnover, with staff, VAT or stock complexity
- You want current monthly numbers and practical finance support
Probably not a fit
- Only need annual accounts or a basic tax return
- A pre-launch business without an immediate finance need
- Unable to maintain reliable sales, purchasing and staff records
- Looking for detailed operational advice without current data
Turnover is a guide. We also consider the team, transaction volume, systems and support you need.
A straightforward handover.
We coordinate with your outgoing accountant, review access and upcoming deadlines, and agree the first reporting cycle. Any historic gaps, catch-up work or system changes are scoped upfront.
Hospitality accounting, answered.
Yes. We support established hospitality operators with recurring monthly accounting needs, as well as growing food and drink businesses. We agree the scope around your sales channels, staff, locations and reporting requirements.
We first review how each channel reaches the bank and accounts, including fees, refunds and timing differences. Then we agree a practical reconciliation process. Any integration or system changes are scoped before work starts.
Yes, where purchasing, stock, payroll and sales records support it. We agree the useful level of detail first. Menu, department or venue reporting requires consistently recorded operating data.
Your proposal confirms the bookkeeping, payroll, VAT, year-end compliance and reporting included. Every client has a named manager and quarterly review. Forecasting, senior input and catch-up work are agreed where needed.
Where records are consistently allocated by venue or unit, we can agree separate and combined reporting. Any changes needed to bookkeeping or payroll records are identified first.
We can scope support for the financial information and forecasts needed for a suitable application. Eligibility depends on the business, project and funding programme; we review the relevant requirements before starting.
We coordinate the professional handover, review deadlines and agree the opening position. We identify historic gaps and catch-up work before confirming the ongoing monthly scope.
