“We’ve been working with Hawksford since 2012 when we decided to set up our own entities in Asia. The China team is very professional and helpful. They took care of every step of business formation, giving us advice and responding to our needs in a timely manner. With their ongoing support in accounting, tax, and corporate governance, we have been able to establish our presence in Asia and would continue to work with Hawksford as a trusted partner.”
Sophia Zhou, APAC Finance Controller, Moleskine China
"Hawksford was able to help Boggi beyond its scope and has proven to be a key stakeholder of Boggi in Asia. In Singapore alone, Hawksford assisted Boggi in cultivating our connections with the most important landlords. This contribution allowed us to enter the Singapore market and open three stores."
Paolo Selva, Corporate CEO, Boggi Milano
“Hawksford’s Hong Kong team were true professionals and great people, supporting our operation here in Hong Kong, and providing us with tailored services for finance and administration which perfectly met our requirements. They handled our enquiries promptly and were always focused on delivering excellent solutions.”
Summy Lee, Head of Business Development, North/East Asia and Pacific, Amann Group
"From the beginning, Hawksford took care of the essential business set-up, so that we could be up and running and operating successfully in a short timeframe. As a result of such a smooth entry into the UK, we have continued to use Hawksford for accounting services, financial statements, tax declarations and other general administrative services."
Anujin Baasanjav, Head Accountant, Gobi Cashmere UK
"Hawksford has been a trusted partner, supporting Valextra with setting up entities and stores in Greater China, and demonstrating their deep understanding of local regulations, tax and accounting, and ways of doing business in the region. With a dedicated Account Manager who's always been able to come to us with solutions and a Plan B promptly, we are delighted with their professional services and mindset."
Frederic Ture, Managing Director Greater China, Valextra
"During our international market growth, we've been very pleased to work with Hawksford who guided us on our expansion into Singapore.
