KAP, Inc. is a young and modern firm, but our team has more than 50 years of combined experience.
The seed of our firm was planted in 2014 when our founders (while at their previous workplace) made the leap to cloud accounting. Since then, our seed has sprouted and grown and has truly begun to bear fruit for our clients. We’ve even been recognized as Xero Partners!
We’ve spent many hours learning the ins and outs of Xero cloud accounting, the Xero Add On Market place and all the connected apps and software options out there. This means our clients know they have the most suitable solution for their business and can come to us with any queries. For us at KAP, Inc., cloud accounting enables us to work online, from anywhere, and collaborate with our clients more. It’s a win-win all round.
