MEDIA, PA (November 12, 2019) – Barsz Gowie Amon & Fultz (BGA&F), a full-service accounting firm with offices throughout central and southeastern Pennsylvania, announced today that it has signed an agreement with Rimmer & Jennings (R&J), a CPA firm based in Delaware County, to merge.
Following the transaction, which is expected to close by year-end, six members of the R&J team will relocate to BGA&F’s Media office and will bring BGA&F to a total of 45. Kevin Jennings will join the firm as a partner, while Ed Rimmer will stay on as a Director. R&J specializes in business and real estate venture consulting, accounting and auditing, with a focus on small businesses and individuals.
“We are thrilled to welcome the Rimmer & Jennings team to the BGA&F family,” said William Gowie, CPA, managing partner and co-founder of BGA&F. “The firm’s reputation for impeccable work delivered by a hardworking staff made this an easy decision that will strengthen our firm, expand our capabilities and drive new business opportunities.”
