Here at Prana Chai, we love working with JLS Partners. Not only are we experiencing a very fast pace because of exciting growth, but we also know that it is only going to get faster with international growth. This means we had to partner with a company who would deliver sound financial advice, international connections, and responsive, fast lead times. JLS Partners has lived up to this and delivered each and every time we needed. Now we have more time on our hands to deal with growth and our own operations.
Lynda, Rohan and the team at JLS Partners are integral to our business and a wealth of information regarding our individual financial needs. From legislative requirements through to financial analysis and strategic financial planning their assistance and advice is invaluable.
