Zia & Co

About Zia & Co

Zia & Co is a small chartered certified accountancy practice in Levenshulme, south Manchester, operating since 2002 and linked to ACCA through its membership. The firm acts for a mixed base of private individuals and companies, and says it has particular experience with new business start-ups as well as a specialist group dealing with solicitors and medical professionals such as doctors, dentists and pharmacists. Other sectors it names include charities, retail, wholesale, construction, property letting and development, hospitality, IT and design. It tries to be flexible by offering evening and weekend appointments, document collection and remote working through online software. Foreign clients and non-English languages are not mentioned on the website, so the offer is aimed squarely at UK domestic customers, with company formation presented as part of a wider start-up package rather than as a stand-alone specialism.
