East river Is Named Singapore Partner of the Year at Xero Asia Awards

East river has been awarded Xero’s Singapore Partner of the Year for Xero Awards Asia 2020. The annual Xero Awards for Asia recognises excellence among their accounting and bookkeeping partners. They also celebrate the role of its partners in helping small businesses across Asia thrive.

East river is a technological company that disrupts traditional business administration. It provides online accounting services for SMEs especially those involved with E-commerce. The company also provides a comprehensive range of back-end services like incorporation, payroll and corporate secretarial work. These are tedious but unavoidable tasks which entrepreneurs usually outsource. With over 5000 clients across Singapore, Hong Kong and the United Kingdom, the company has recently raised USD$3 million in funding from XA Network and AltaIR Capital.

“It was incredibly tough to judge the many entries in this year’s Xero Awards: Asia - so many of our accounting, bookkeeping and app partners are doing amazing things to help small businesses thrive,” stated on the Xero Awards: Asia website.

Finalists were assessed on innovation, marketing strategy, knowledge of Xero’s products and tools, amongst other criteria for the Singapore Partner of the Year award. Find out more about the other award winners of the Xero Awards Asia 2020.

Osome, having been a Platinum Partner of Xero since March 2020, is glad to receive this award. It will continue its commitment to free clients from paperwork distractions across its current markets in Singapore, Hong Kong and the United Kingdom so that entrepreneurs can focus on growing their business through these uncertain times.
