We have been with Shepherd Hensman since we first started out in business in 2002 and they have been there with advice and support as our business has grown and especially as accounting technology has advanced. Our involvement in the live Beta testing, made possible through Shepherd Hensman, of the new MYOB Account Right software, has made transitioning to the latest technology seamless, and their approachable, friendly team are always on hand if questions arise

Wright Wool is a successful wool brokering business in Waipukurau serving the wider Hawkes Bay. We are passionate about our industry and work very hard to ensure our clients receive the highest standard of service. We also insist that our service providers are of the highest calibre and Shepherd Hensman Ltd fit very easily into this bracket. We have enjoyed a fantastic working relationship since we bought into this business. They have helped us develop our business into what it is today. Their staff are always friendly, polite and respectful. They speak in a language we can all understand and they even have a sense of humour! I would encourage any business to employ the services of SHCA as they will be assured of excellent, reliable and honest advice.
