“As a McDonald’s franchisee with a background outside the brand, I needed an accountant who could do more than just balance the books. Cooper Parry has been that and more. They don’t just handle my business and personal tax submissions – they take the heavy lifting off my shoulders so I can focus on running my stores.
What sets Cooper Parry apart is their deep understanding of the McDonald’s system. Mark Sadler and his team know the intricacies of the franchise model, which means I don’t have to waste time explaining how things work. That insight is invaluable – it’s like having an in-house team that speaks the same language as both me and McDonald’s.
Their payroll service has also been a huge asset. When issues have come up, the team have worked directly with HMRC to resolve them quickly. It’s seamless, efficient, and gives me peace of mind.
Beyond compliance, Cooper Parry offers strategic advice – whether it’s planning for expansion, understanding business valuations, or navigating tax strategy. Mark also acts as a sounding board, sharing insights from across the McDonald’s network while maintaining confidentiality. That broader perspective helps me make better decisions.
Ultimately, Cooper Parry helps me operate effectively within the unique framework of the McDonald’s franchise model. Their support ensures I stay aligned with the brand’s expectations while focusing on growing my business. With their guidance and insight, I feel well-positioned to take advantage of new opportunities as they arise. They’re more than accountants – they’re trusted partners in my journey as a franchisee.”
