What Ringuette does

Ringuette & Associés Inc. is a privately held Chartered Professional Accounting (CPA auditeur) firm headquartered in Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, Quebec. Founded in 1983, the firm operates from a single office at 175 rue Victoria and serves the Greater Montreal metropolitan region. It employs more than 20 staff, including five CPA-auditor partners (Denis Ringuette, Benoit Ringuette, Mathieu Ringuette, Samuel Langlois, and Caroline Ringuette), with Mathieu Ringuette holding an LL.M. in Taxation (LL.M. Fisc.).

The firm's service portfolio spans four categories: Certification Services (audit, examination, review engagements, due diligence for business acquisitions, and special reports for shareholders and lenders); Fiscalité/Taxation Services (tax planning and compliance for corporations, trusts, and individuals, including consumption taxes, estate and testamentary planning, corporate reorganization, and professional incorporation advisory); Related Services (compilation engagements, bookkeeping, payroll processing, and accounting staff training); and Other Advisory Services (business valuation, business financing facilitation, and business transfer services including intergenerational transfers). The firm is also a recognized training provider (formateur agréé) approved by Emploi Québec.

The firm generates revenue through billable professional services quoted per engagement based on client-specific needs, scope, and complexity. Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, relying on 40 years of regional reputation, referrals, and a LinkedIn corporate presence rather than broad digital marketing. Customer segments include Quebec-based SMEs (primary), self-employed professionals considering incorporation, and business buyers/sellers requiring valuation and transfer advisory. The firm holds no patents, has no disclosed M&A activity, no funding rounds, and no external investors.
