Dungarvan office has been established in the community for more than 40 years. It has a long history of supporting businesses, farmers and families throughout the Waterford region.

One of the most interesting aspects of Dungarvan is how the office has evolved.

Historically, the team operated from multiple offices within the town.

Following staff changes and restructuring, the teams have increasingly come together to operate as a single collaborative unit.

While separate office locations and contact numbers still exist, the focus today is on working as one team to support clients.

Full-service support under one roof

Clients in Dungarvan can access a wide range of FDC services, including:

• Accountancy
• Bookkeeping
• Financial Services
• Tax Planning
• Business support services

The office benefits from close collaboration between different departments, ensuring clients have access to specialist expertise when needed.

The office structure has evolved in recent years:

• Staff have stepped into expanded responsibilities and consulting roles.
• Team members who previously focused primarily on bookkeeping are now taking on more client-facing responsibilities.
• The office continues to adapt to meet client needs while maintaining strong service levels.

Dungarvan has seen a significant shift in client demographics over time. Estimated client mix with 60% business clients and 40% farming clients.

This represents a notable change from earlier years when agriculture formed the majority of the client base.
