Anderson Anderson & Brown were appointed as auditors and tax advisers to Rainbow Cars Ltd in 1999 when the company was formed to buy the trading assets of the business that previously ran the taxi fleet. The client partner, Robbie Gordon, has advised the company on a number of acquisitions it has made in the taxi trade in Aberdeen which take it to its current position as the largest provider of taxis in the city. Joint managing directors, Russell McLeod and Ray Burgess, said “Anderson Anderson & Brown have been extremely effective in the provision and delivery of both financial and tax advice and have also helped us set up computer systems to improve the financial reporting of the business. Their additional involvement in the provision of a quarterly management accounts service is extremely efficient and helps us to identify areas that we require make to quick decisions on”.
