MYOB General Manager - Business Division James Scollay says, “We’re very pleased to partner with Retail Zoo, Australia’s leading food franchise network, to provide customised business advisory and accounting resources, training and support. We’re helping some of the country’s most ambitious business owners understand how cloud accounting can drive efficiencies and improve their understanding of their financial situation and the funds available to invest back into their business.

“MYOB and our bookkeeper partners have the right expertise, resources and client-centric attitude to support the successful Retail Zoo franchise network. This strong collaboration will make their business life easier.
