Farm-focused finance specialist attends the regional finals of the Rural Business Awards

C.The Umbrian R&D tax credit and grant finance specialist Growthviser is a finalist for the northern area for the “Best Rural Professional Services Business” at the prestigious Rural Business Awards 2021/22.

Growthviser was recognized for its commitment to helping rural customers, particularly those in agriculture and food manufacturing, achieve their growth goals.

Founded by ex-Deloitte accountant Darina Ward and headquartered in Ulverston, the company has a heavy focus on innovative farmers across the UK who want to take advantage of the many grants they have at their disposal and who want to maximize the benefits by marrying them with legitimate R&D -Tax credits on. You can get up to 33p in pounds back from HMRC for money spent on “innovation”, even if it means just changing processes.

Growthviser has also incorporated the experience with the Heinz brand acquired by Darina and her specialist consultants Sylvia Barton and John Whittaker into the development of a unique service. The team has been working with clients over the long term and helping them grow rather than acting like most R&D tax credit companies who just quick to fill out forms and process applications.

By bringing together a team of agriculture, farming and food manufacturing specialists including Business Development Manager Richard Hodgson with an agricultural background, Growthviser has established itself as the premier growth consultancy for rural businesses in need of financial support and mentoring inspiration.

This has led to the bloom of various new services in response to the needs of rural businesses, including a food safety and legislation service to help farmers struggling with the new Brexit and legal requirements.

The approach has also evolved into a comprehensive approach, with Growthviser also working extensively with food chain suppliers, from farms that specialize in certain types of products to Michelin-starred chefs determined to make food fresh from the farm on theirs To use menus.

The most recent amount of money saved for rural businesses last year is £ 7 million, but many more financial benefits are currently being planned for the rural businesses that Growthviser provides innovation growth advice to.

Growthviser is eagerly anticipating October 1st when the Northern Finals of the Rural Business Awards takes place online. Should it win at the regional level, it will take part in the national final and compete against the best from five other regions to determine the national category winner.

Darina Ward says, “We have remained true to our policy of working with rural businesses that are severely underrepresented in HMRC R&D tax credit reclaims because they are unaware of their eligibility or are confused by the process and need help. While most companies simply process forms instead of translating “help” into mentoring and strategic growth advice, we offer a holistic growth mentoring package.

“We’re constantly looking to raise awareness of how we can help rural businesses by re-offering our very different approach of combining R&D tax credit entitlements with grant support. This can reduce the total cost of a project by more than 50% and typically increases the total amount of capital invested in the company by around 20%. With the help of this success from the Northern Rural Business Awards finalist, we hope to get the message across and support rural businesses across the UK, as well as those involved in related fields or bringing products to the table. “
