Testimonials

Mark Verco – director of Wickham Flower Pty Ltd

To whom it may concern,

Matt Rowett has been our external accountant/financial advisor for Wickham Flower & Co Pty Ltd over the past 15 years and has been instrumental in the growth of Wickham Flower & Co.

During this time Wickham Flower have expanded their business into Keith, Naracoorte, Mt Gambier and employ over 100 staff. Matt also facilitated business purchase of M.H Monfries & helped organise the establishment of new Ag dealerships in Bordertown & Keith while also offering funding options.

Over the last 15 years we have seen a number of shareholders join & leave the company and Matt’s help and advice has insured the best result for all parties involved.

Matt is also the chairman for our quarterly management meetings with shareholders & managers and has the ability to keep the meetings on track while giving his advice on decisions that need to be made. He often has to play.

“Devil's advocate”. he is direct and honest with his comments which is useful when there are many people involved & decisions need to be made.

On a personal note, Matt goes above & beyond to look after your best interests, and he has gained my utmost respect & trust and I would not make a financial decision without getting his advice. 

I have no doubt that Wickham Flower would not be in the position it is today without the help & guidance of Matt & would recommend him to anyone that is seeking business & financial advice.   

Mark Gordon - Coonalpyn

I am fortunate to have had an association and friendship with Matt for 20+ years. His tax preparation and business advice has been essential to me and my family for our ongoing business success. It is apparent that he treats us with the same articulate mindset and courtesy as he would with his biggest client. Over the years Matt has developed a new level of sophistication in his balanced communication style, rapid analysis, problem solving, and creation of solutions. I look forward to facing new challenges with Matt’s support in the future.

Kennett Family - Bordertown

We moved our accounting work to Matt and Murray Nankivell in 2011. We have grown our business, minimised taxation and have our succession planning in place. Matt’s advice and support has assisted us to achieve these outcomes.
