Tax, audit and control-focused advisory for textile and food companies with extensive manufacturing, supply chain, export, VAT refund and incentive processes.
Industry risks
Key areas of risk
We assess tax, audit, social security and operational compliance in the context of your industry.
Supply chain and documentation risk
Discrepancies between documentation and actual flows in raw material procurement, contract manufacturing, intermediary sourcing, returns, discounts and production waste may create tax risks.
VAT refunds and cash flow pressure
Incomplete documents, incorrect calculations and lengthy reviews in VAT refund processes arising from exports, reduced rates, withholding or exemptions may strain working capital.
Inventory, waste and cost controls
Improper management of scrap, losses, yields, period-end inventory valuations and cost allocations in production may affect financial reporting and the tax base.
Customs and foreign trade compliance
Procedures involving imported raw materials, export deliveries, inward processing, origin, valuation and customs duties represent significant compliance issues for companies.
Workforce, incentives and compliance obligations
Labor-intensive operations, shift arrangements, subcontracting relationships, social security incentives and regional support measures may create cost and penalty risks if not properly monitored.
Common needs
The needs businesses encounter
Accelerating VAT refund processes
Calculations, document preparation, refund files, offsets and guarantee release processes for refund-entitling transactions must be correctly structured from the outset.
Tax and full certification audits
Early identification of tax risks through periodic controls, tax return compliance, reviews of books and supporting documents, and year-end closing procedures is important.
Inventory and cost accounting controls
Production costs must be properly allocated, waste and losses documented, and inventory movements monitored consistently with financial statements.
Management of incentives and support mechanisms
Eligibility for investment, employment, export, R&D, regional support and social security incentives should be regularly assessed.
Internal control and process improvement
Strengthening controls in procurement, production, warehousing, dispatch, sales and collections reduces operational losses and compliance risks.
