"I have no idea if my inventory numbers actually match what's in my warehouse"

Who This Is For

We work with owner-operated wholesalers, distributors, and industrial suppliers that need more than a generalist accountant who treats them like any other small business. If your business deals in real complexity: inventory, supplier relationships, purchase orders, and customer accounts, you're in the right place.

Wholesale distributors buying and reselling goods to other businesses

Industrial suppliers selling parts, tools, and equipment to trades

Manufacturers selling direct to business customers

Recycling and reclamation businesses buying and reselling materials

Owner-operators running lean teams with real operational complexity

Why Us?

Most accountants are comfortable with service businesses. Clean revenue, no inventory, straightforward books. Product-based businesses are a different story entirely.


We have worked directly with wholesalers, distributors, and industrial suppliers. We understand how inventory affects your cost of goods. We know what it looks like when a large receivable sits unpaid for 60 days and cash gets tight. And we know that the financial reports most accountants produce for businesses like yours barely scratch the surface of what you actually need to manage your operation.


Before starting S.M. CPA & Accounting, I spent years at a Big 4 firm working across a range of industries. That experience, combined with hands-on work with product-based business clients, is what shapes how I approach every client in this space.
