TaxAssist Accountants has sold its Master Franchise for the Republic of Ireland. Accountants Greg Murphy and Roddy Comyn have purchased the rights to franchise TaxAssist Accountants, which provides an accountancy and taxation service for small businesses, across Ireland.

Greg and Roddy currently operate their own established and successful accountancy practice in Dublin, which will now be transformed into the Support Centre for the Republic of Ireland franchisee network.

Karl Sandall, Chief Executive of TaxAssist Accountants, comments: 'I'm incredibly pleased that we have found two excellent Master Franchisees who will be taking the TaxAssist Accountants brand name to the Republic of Ireland market. I'm confident that with their ability and enthusiasm and with our experience and expertise that this will be the start of a long and successful relationship.'

TaxAssist Accountants was founded in 1995 and now has over 160 franchisees including 79 shop fronts across the UK. The selling of this first Master Franchise Licence in the Republic of Ireland proves that the sound and proven business model is exportable and further international expansion plans are in the pipeline.
