1 min read

A well-known Staffordshire accountancy firm has been acquired. 

DPC Chartered Accountants, based in Stoke-on-Trent, is the 11th firm to have been acquired by Sumer, a mid-market accountancy practice for SMEs with a strategy focussed on creating regional hubs dedicated to serving the SME market. 

DPC, which is built on 80 years of experience, is located between two Sumer hubs which have joined the organisation in the last 12 months. 

This positioning will enhance coverage and strengthen Sumer’s reach between the Midlands and North West. 

Warren Mead, CEO of Sumer, said: “DPC dominates the accounting sector in Staffordshire, an area which has huge potential for economic growth. 

“Sumer wants to join forces with people who share our commitment to growth, go the extra mile for clients, and care about their colleagues. 

“With DPC’s impressive team, established roots and solid reputation, combined with our reach and scale, we can help local businesses prosper.”  

Michelle Coates, Director at DPC Accountants, said: “Our firm has continually delivered a robust value proposition for both clients and our team. 

“Sumer embodies ethics that closely mirror our own, particularly their exemplary record in championing diversity and supporting SMEs. 

“This synergy makes them an ideal partner for us, as we continue to excel and advocate for Stoke-on-Trent and surrounding areas.”
