Looking to grow its presence in the Chicago area, Akron, Ohio-based IPA 300 firm Apple Growth Partners (FY21 net revenue of $20.5 million) is merging in Schaumburg, Ill.-based Burton Partners LLC.
Founded in 1973, Burton Partners offers a wide array of tax, accounting, assurance and advisory services. The deal adds 17 professionals, including five principals, to the Apple Growth Partners team, and gives the firm a second Chicago-area office.
“Burton Partners’ commitment to delivering personalized service to their clients, coupled with their 50-year history, makes them a strong fit as we seek to grow sustainably within the Great Lakes region,” says Apple Growth Partners chairman Chuck Mullen.
