Our Story

Pfumo was founded in 2011 by Roxanne Peneda with a deep passion for helping business owners take control of their financial clarity and compliance. While studying, Roxanne had vivid nightmares of walking into basements stacked with disorganised files and she knew she didn’t want to be the person telling business owners what they were doing wrong. Instead, she wanted to be the one providing them with real solutions from the start by offering the guidance and support needed to avoid chaos altogether.

At Pfumo, we understand the stress that financial disarray can cause, and we’re here to offer relief. Our mission is to help business owners feel confident and prepared, with systems in place that ensure everything is compliant and optimised, whether it’s accounting records, tax compliance or secretarial services. With Pfumo, you’ll never have to worry about a surprise audit again. We’ve got everything covered, so you can focus on growing your business.

I have used Pfumo for the last 9 years and would highly recommended them for all your accounting needs. They have efficient systems in place, are always available to take your queries and make sure you meet all your tax obligations in time to avoid penalties. Their advice is always sound and in the best interest of your business and I have peace of mind that my finances are all in order.
