Staff at Haines Watts in Exeter and Crediton have been praised after the group was named Accountancy Firm of the Year: SME Clients at the 2014 FDs' Excellence Awards.
The firm, with more than 60 offices and 35,000 clients across the UK, has now scooped an award at the event for three years in a row, after winning Auditor of the Year twice.
Ben de Cruz, managing partner at Haines Watts Exeter, said: "Our core client base is owner-managed businesses, so to get this endorsement from SME businesses means a great deal to us. We are proud of all of our staff in both the Exeter and Crediton offices who do an outstanding job for our clients on a daily basis.
"It is because of their contribution and commitment to giving outstanding service that has helped us to win an award for the third year running, which is an amazing achievement."
The glittering awards ceremony held in Grosvenor Square, London was hosted by Real Business in association with the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales and supported by the CBI.
