“It is an honour to be admitted as the exclusive accounting firm member of Alliott Global Alliance in Lesotho. Through this alliance, we will be able to enhance our competitiveness in the local audit market, allowing us to compete for work of larger clients, therefore raising our profile in the international business community.
