About Olfsen & Co.

Olfsen & CO. was established in 2019 to provide all small and medium sized enterprises with basic to advanced financial & accounting services in their particular industry. As Olfsen & Co. is an ambitious and young company, we are able to provide efficient and affordable accounting services for our clients.

Why We Started.

“I felt it was extremely difficult for newly registered companies to get off the ground without having large accounting fees in addition to their large start-up costs therefore we entered the market to bridge this gap between small and medium sized enterprises and to offer affordable accounting services.

We also felt accountants and accounting firms were becoming more distant to their client’s needs and requirements which results in their clients’ needs or business requirements either not being met or understood so our main objective is to provide a personalised approach which differentiates us from the rest.”

Devon Olfsen – Director

Why Choose Us.

As director I attained my Bachelor of Accounting Sciences Degree (BCompt) through Unisa & completed my articles thereafter. I then started my company with one client and have grown to a healthy size of 300+ clients, all giving thanks to God. My drive for success & passion for accounting led me to offer quality services in this industry and my confident & personal approach to clients & their needs has made it easier for them to achieve their desired and unique result.
