Doane Grant Thornton adds teams in GTA and Vancouver

Doane Grant Thornton (DGT), a national mid-market accounting and consulting firm, has added teams from Prasad & Company in Thornhill, Ontario and Weir and Company Chartered Professional Accountants in North Vancouver.

Prasad & Company has provided accounting, tax, and business advisory services to businesses, individuals, and families for more than 35 years. The firm has more than 75 employees listed on LinkedIn.

The Prasad & Company head office will form DGT’s Thornhill office, effective September 1.

“As our profession evolves, joining Doane Grant Thornton strengthens our ability to continue growing, innovating, and supporting our clients at the highest level. We’re excited about the expanded opportunities this creates for our people, our clients, and the communities we serve,” said Pramen Prasad, who joins DGT as a partner.

Weir and Company has provided accounting, tax, and advisory solutions to clients throughout British Columbia for over three decades. Michael Weir, Jacki Steenken, and members of their team will join DGT and form its new North Vancouver location.

“By becoming part of a national firm our clients will have access to a wider range of resources, services, and experience, helping us address increasingly complex needs while maintaining the trusted relationships we’ve built over the years,” Weir said. “We’re excited about the opportunities this creates for our clients and our team and the future growth of our practice particularly on the North Shore.”

DGT has more than 3,000 people across 70+ offices in Canada. The firm earlier this year acquired Percival Group Chartered Professional Accountants in Toronto.
