Inception and Vision: The Munro’s story begins in the early 1970s with Don Munro and Barry Virgo at Wesfarmers Taxation Services. Recognising a potential conflict of interest, they spearheaded the creation of an independent accounting firm. Thus, on 1 July 1973, Munro’s was born, marking the start of an extraordinary journey.
Early Growth: Operating initially from Queen Street in Perth, Munro’s quickly gained traction, particularly with farming businesses and cooperatives. These early years were characterised by a deep understanding of the local business landscape, fostering relationships that were to become the cornerstone of our growth.
Strategic Acquisitions: A significant milestone was the acquisition of R A Long Rigby & Co in 1989, broadening our client base to include city and metropolitan businesses. This period saw further acquisitions, including Ken Crofts and Portobello, diversifying our services and clientele.
Evolution of Services: As our client base grew, so did our services. We adapted to the evolving needs of our clients, offering more tailored and sophisticated solutions, from tax consulting to comprehensive business advisory services.
Embracing Technology: As technology has evolved, Munro’s has integrated advanced systems – from the introduction of computers in the early years of Munro’s, to later adoption of smartboards, digital client interfaces and AI. This continuing transformation enables us to offer more efficient, secure, and convenient services – always focusing on what brings the most value to you.
Global Clientele: Our reach has extended beyond Western Australia, attracting clients from across Australia and internationally. This expansion has enriched our expertise and allowed us to offer a global perspective to our local and international clients.
Achieving Recognition: In the late 2010s, a remarkable trend emerged – our clients began sharing their experiences with Munro’s through Google reviews. Within a short period, Munro’s reached a significant milestone, collecting over 100 5-star Google reviews (an achievement only achieved by 63 of 4,300 (1.5%) Australian accounting firms based on an assessment we conducted in December 2023).
Our Promise, Your Experience: These reviews are not just numbers; they are a reflection of our brand promise – to be the professional problem solvers you can rely on. They are a story of a problem solved, a business supported and a relationship strengthened. They reinforce our position as a firm that not only understands your business needs but also cares deeply about your success.
People at the Core: At the heart of Munro’s are our people – a team dedicated to intellectual growth, client service and strong relationships. We celebrate this spirit through regular social events, fostering a culture of camaraderie and mutual respect.
50 Years of Munro’s: Our 50th-anniversary function was not just a celebration of our past but a testament to our enduring commitment to growth, innovation and client service.
Your Partner in Success: Our current office on Fitzgerald Street is more than a location; it’s a hub of expertise and solutions driven by your needs. With our latest website launched in 2024, we continue to be your professional problem solvers, trusted confidants and savvy advisors delivering on our promise to solve whatever simple or complex issue you face.
Congratulation on achieving 50 years in business! We made the move to Munro’s in 2015 and have since received sound professional advice & services for all accounting, taxation, business development and succession planning needs, to us personally, to our family and to our group of companies. We have found your services to be efficient, effective and of the highest caliber. Many thanks from the Hill Group.
I have been a client of Munro’s for 2 years and am very happy with their service. They have saved me a lot of time, effort, and money.
We first met Mike Beer 25 years ago, when he was assigned to our account by his employer at the time. When Mike moved to Munro’s, we decided to transfer our business to follow him as we were so impressed with both his professionalism and his character.
We have never regretted our decision to keep our business with Munro’s and Mike, who we think of as a good friend first and a total professional second for the excellent service he and his company have provided.
Congratulations Munro’s on your anniversary!
Have been using Munro’s for over 30 years and have been completely satisfied with the friendliness and expert knowledge they provide. I would fully recommend anybody needing an accounting firm to use Munro’s. Well done Simon and the team.
From the small technical stuff to the sage big picture advice, Simon and team Munro’s have been patiently guiding and safeguarding our family’s financial journey for decades. THANKS !! Here’s to the next 50 years!
Thanks Mike and the team for making it easy to process my personal tax and for answering all my questions and concerns around CGT.
Munro’s have been dealing with our taxes for a couple of years now, and have always been right onto anything to do with crypto and any other aspects of the industries we work in. Always friendly, helpful and professional.
Great team and great service.
A big shout out to Mike and his team at Munro’s for the outstanding work you’ve done on our accounts and returns!!
From our very first interaction with Mike, we had a great feeling about engaging with Munro’s, and you’ve more than delivered.
It’s been such a relief to know our business and personal accounts are in such capable hands.
Highly recommended.
Professional, insightful and always supporting. Christine and Munro’s has helped me through all avenue’s and queries regarding investment, tax return, property, super and general finance. Really appreciative of their work and highly recommend!
I can highly recommend Tony and Michael at Munros – they have done my family affairs for several years now and couldn’t be more happier with the service I receive. The quality and professionalism of the work is second to none.
Congratulations to Munro’s for achieving 50 years of service to WA, with a special thanks to Mike and his team for looking after us through our business, personnel and financial journey.
I have been a Munro’s client for the past few years and they have professionally and patiently assisted me with complicated crypto tax returns. Everyone on their team is extremely friendly and I highly recommend Munros to anyone.
I’m extremely pleased with the services of Munro’s Accountants. They are professional and easy to work with. My situation was not simple yet they completed the task and have provided me with peace of mind going forwards. I would not hesitate to recommend them. AAAAA+++++
We worked with Ben and his team from MUNRO’s accountants in Perth during a business purchase and due diligence process, and were absolutely impressed with their service. Their attention to detail and strong, practical advice gave us complete confidence throughout. Highly recommend for any Perth business looking for reliable and professional support.
Munros was really helpful in listening to my situation and taking their time in pointing me to the right direction for my complex tax matters. I high recommend their services!
I came over to Australia with a highly complicated cryptocurrency investing and trading portfolio. I never realised that I had to declare this in my tax returns as I had never cashed out into my bank account. I soon discovered that every transaction is taxable irrespective of whether or not you cash out. I contacted Munro’s in an outright panic and was put through to Cherie and explained everything to her. She immediately put me at ease and took control of my situation. From the start it was evident that I was in the care of a real professional tax consultant. I handed her a nightmare on a plate (3 years of highly complicated transactions) and she seamlessly worked through it. Cherie has incredible knowledge and experience and through this, Munro’s saved us thousands of dollars. I will remain at Munro’s until the very end. Thank you Cherie, you are the most knowledgeable and professional tax consultant that I have ever dealt with.
Rama and the team at Munro’s provided prompt and thorough crypto tax advice. They are very professional and I highly recommend their services.
After “investing” in cryptocurrencies for the past few years I thought my tax return was going to be a nightmare. Cherie and the team at Munro’s have done a fantastic job at making my last two tax returns as easy as possible for me and I will be continuing to use their services in the future.
Professional service, very quick & reliable especially when it involves Cryptocurrency. Went out of their way to assist by a deadline that I had & they were happy to accommodate.
My husband and I were looking for some advice on a short time frame with regards to purchasing a piece of farmland. We had an offer in hand and a peculiar clause that we needed advice on. Adam Carter was prompt, detailed and courteous in all dealings with us. He helped us meet our deadline, understand the consequences of each available option and now establish our small farming enterprise. We cannot thank him and the team at Munro’s enough. Highly recommend their services.
