Pender Newkirk & Company is Tampa Bay's largest locally owned accounting firm and has been serving Florida businesses and individuals since 1976. We are a quality-oriented firm with many successful, long-time clients. Our focus is to provide top-notch business services via a team of talented specialists with the responsiveness, personal service and fee schedule of a local organization. PNC is a sensible alternative to the international accounting firms as well as a logical next step for companies and individuals who have outgrown their current accounting firm's capabilities.

We have carefully and deliberately structured our firm to meet the accounting needs of Tampa Bay's business climate. Many of our clients are closely held companies, some multi-generational family businesses. Some of our clients are small publicly held companies. Our team understands the type of industries common to Tampa Bay, including distribution, manufacturing, real estate development, construction and professional services. Our depth of knowledge is such that we offer our clients a full complement of assurance & advisory services as well as a broad range of tax specialties.

Our clients often tell us how greatly they value the responsiveness and attention that they receive from our professionals. As the complexity and geographic reach of our clients' businesses have grown, we have added resources that go beyond a locally based accounting firm. Pender Newkirk & Company’s membership in the BDO Seidman Alliance provides access to the resources of a major international accounting firm without having to sacrifice any of the local-firm traits that our clients value so highly.
