What Fidor does

Fidor Accountants en Belastingadviseurs B.V. is a privately held Dutch professional services firm headquartered in Ridderkerk, Netherlands, providing accounting, tax advisory, HR and payroll administration, legal support, and business financing brokerage to small and medium-sized enterprises (MKB) and sole proprietors (ZZP) across the Netherlands. Founded in 2011 by André Schipper, Ewout Verschoor, and Gerben Buth, the firm operates across six professional disciplines delivered by five partners and a team of 40+ colleagues, serving more than 1,200 clients.

The service portfolio is built around custom-built online IT applications and management dashboards tailored to each client's situation, integrated with mainstream Dutch accounting platforms (Exact, AFAS, Twinfield) and the Loket.nl payroll and digital-signing system. Core offerings include annual accounts and interim analyses, tax filings (VAT, corporate, dividend, income, gift/inheritance, transfer), payroll and employment contract management (delivered through the Faris sister company and Loket.nl), legal agreement drafting, and financing advisory delivered via membership in the Credion network. Differentiators cited are real-time financial insight, an 'overstapservice' (switching service) for migration of new clients, and a sparring-partner advisory posture. Certifications and professional affiliations include NBA (Nederlandse Beroepsorganisatie van Accountants), RB (Register Belastingadviseurs), and GDPR compliance.

Fidor's revenue model is quote-based professional services billing, with no publicly disclosed pricing. Distribution is direct only: partner-led consulting at the Ridderkerk office, quarterly business reviews, digital platforms for client self-service, and a dedicated recruitment microsite (toffebaan.fidor.nl) for talent acquisition. Marketing combines content (blog/news on tax and entrepreneurship), organic social (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram), email newsletter, SEO, and client testimonial/case-study publishing across multiple verticals including hospitality, flooring, luxury transport, e-commerce, international trade, and events.
