“The Terroir Group has acted like a business partner, not only doing our accounting, but in helping us to assess some of our business decisions from an accounting perspective. Their advice has been instrumental in establishing our business, setting it up, and in helping it to grow.
We, here at Haus of Cellars, have been very fortunate to have the Terroir Group provide our company not only with accounting, but also with compliance, consulting and HR services for the past three years. They are very professional, honest and efficient in their work and have guided us with a wealth of knowledge in our industry. I personally appreciate their availability and rapid response to our needs. As new business owners, The Terroir Group's help has been invaluable. We would recommend The Terroir Group to anyone.”

“Champagne Wishes & Charcuterie Dreams has used the Terroir Group since opening our doors in 2019.
We were originally drawn to the experience and expertise the Terroir Group possessed in the wine field, but quickly learned that their diverse knowledge of accounting, compliance, human resources and business development stretched far beyond the wine industry. As our company grew, The Terroir Group was there every step of the way to ensure that Champagne Wishes & Chacuterie Dreams had all the information and resources needed to make both the wine portion and food service portion of our business sound and viable.
Recently, we have started using The Terroir Group's Freight Solutions division and were very pleased to find that they had a solution for all of our full truck and LTL needs. You will not be disappointed with your decision to use The Terroir Group”
