The four partners, Chris Yewdall, Andrea Kennedy, Liz Short and Sally Shacklock from the Halifax based accounting practice, which was founded in 1919, will remain with the newly merged firm, along with 27 staff .
The firm has been rebranded as Streets Spenser Wilson Chartered Accountants and will continue to operate out of the current office in Halifax.
This is the fifth deal for Top 40 accounting firm Streets in the last six months and has seen the practice grow substantially, now with more than 27 offices and fee income over £39m. There are a number of further deals currently under negotiation. The value of the deal was not disclosed.
Chris Yewdall, partner at Spenser Wilson Chartered Accountants, said: ‘As with any business we cannot stand still and to move Spenser Wilson forward and provide our clients with a greater level of service we looked for some time to find a perfect partner to support us and one with whom we share mutual values.
