TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2019, VANCOUVER, B.C. – MNP, Canada’s fifth largest national accounting and business consulting firm, announced today Qingchun Lu Accounting Services Ltd. (Qingchun Lu), a south Surrey-based accounting firm, will merge with MNP, effective December 2, 2019. While Qingchun Lu was looking to deliver more specialty tax and consulting services to its clients, MNP was looking to expand its presence and add more bi-lingual accounting and tax professionals — who specialize in helping clients conduct business between Canada and China — to serve the Greater Vancouver Region.
With more than 80 locations from coast-to-coast, MNP has 21 locations across B.C. alone, with the firm’s strategic plan calling for continued growth in the province. This merger will further enhance the strength of MNP’s existing dedicated China Services team.
“As we continue to grow our firm to serve the needs of this thriving region, we are excited to welcome a well-established accounting firm that shares our values and client-centric approach,” said Darren Turchansky, MNP’s Executive Vice President of the B.C. Region.
“Since expanding to the MNP Tower in Coal Harbour in 2014, our office has grown rapidly to include a strong private enterprise team, an advisory practice, and team members specializing in working with Chinese-Canadian clients as part of our China Services niche. Joining forces with Qingchun Lu adds the experienced accounting and tax professionals we were seeking to complement our existing Vancouver and South Surrey practices,” added Turchansky.
Qingchun Lu Accounting Services Ltd. is an accounting firm specializing in Chinese owner-managed businesses, high-net-worth individuals and professionals. The firm has served the South Surrey market for more than four years and continues today as a proactive, reliable, professional services firm, committed to giving the highest level of expertise and service to their clients.
“Changing and dynamic market conditions are impacting the way businesses must operate — including our own firm,” Qingchun Lu. “We are continually looking at new ways to help our clients achieve their goals. Being part of a larger team with more resources will allow us to continue to provide a high level of personalized service to our existing clients, while also giving us more capacity to take on new clients. By joining MNP we can add more local and national resources, more advisory services, and a broader range of industry expertise and experience. It’s a great example of how two firms can come together to give our clients the edge they need to stay competitive and overcome current business and industry challenges.”
“As the Greater Vancouver region continues to grow, so does the needs of the business community. Merging in a well-respected firm will allow both our firms and the business community to grow together and ensure MNP continues to meet the needs of the marketplace,” added Turchansky.
Lu said one of the deciding factors when the partner group decided to join MNP was the culture. “Although MNP is a large national firm, it’s always been local in focus with a small-firm culture and commitment to supporting the local community. We knew joining MNP would be a good fit for our clients and our team and we are excited about the future.”
