Eshuis Accountants and Advisors

What Eshuis Accountants and Advisors does

Eshuis Accountants and Advisors is a Dutch multidisciplinary accounting and advisory firm founded in 1932 and headquartered in Almelo, Netherlands, operating from four regional offices (Almelo, Amersfoort, Enschede, Groningen) with nearly 300 employees. It serves primarily Dutch SME clients across seven verticals — construction, hospitality/retail, industry/technology, logistics/automotive, public sector, business services/IT, and healthcare — providing audit and assurance, tax advisory, legal services (Eshuis Juristen), HR and payroll administration (Nmbrs platform), M&A and financing advisory, business intelligence (Road 2 BI), and impact-accounting services. The firm monetizes through professional-services engagements priced per quote with multi-year contracts, combining on-site field advisory with online platforms (MijnEshuis client portal, Eshuis Inzicht management dashboard via Visionplanner Online, Power BI-based BI dashboards).

The group's technology stack integrates third-party platforms rather than proprietary AI: Nmbrs for payroll/HR, Visionplanner Online for management dashboards, Power BI for financial/HR/sustainability (CSRD/VSME) dashboards, and Visionplanner-based Eshuis Scans and Ondernemerskompas assessment tools. Internal tooling includes Road 2 BI as a dedicated subsidiary and a structured three-step professionalization approach for client accounting. The firm is structured as six wholly-owned Dutch BV legal entities (Registeraccountants, Accountants en Belastingadviseurs, Personeelsdiensten, Juristen, Impactondernemen, BI Specialisten) covering distinct service lines.

Eshuis generates revenue through nine documented streams — audit and assurance, financial reporting, payroll/HR, tax, legal, M&A advisory, financing advisory, BI solutions, and organizational advice — alongside impact-accounting and B Corp consulting. It is a member of the SRA network (375 Dutch member firms, 360,000+ benchmarked annual accounts) and PrimeGlobal for international reach. The firm is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, M&A, or public-market activity, and derives its revenue from a distributed SME client base.
