CR van Wyk and Company is an audit firm registered with the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Namibia and the Public Accountants and... CR van Wyk & Company (CRVW), a firm of Chartered Accountants and Auditors was started by Neels (CR) van Wyk in Walvis Bay on 2 January 1996. At first it was only Wilna, his wife and himself. She was the recepti... onist, secretary, cleaner (which she shared with Neels), messenger and tea girl. Neels was the partner, manager and clerk. The firm was registered with ICAN as an auditing firm and grew over the next 4 years and boasted with a staff of 10 people. The firm made an impact in the Swakopmund / Walvis Bay / Henties Bay areas. Neels met Dawie Fourie, the then Managing Partner of the International firm of auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) in Namibia at the fishing waters of Swakopmund during 1999 and they started talking about a possible merger with CRVW. CRVW merged with PwC on 1 January 2000. Neels became a partner in PwC and the staff and clients were incorporated with PwC, Walvis Bay. Neels was transferred to PwCs office in Tsumeb on 1 January 2004 and headed the firms operations in the Northern areas of Namibia. Neels was transferred to Windhoek to be the partner in the small to medium enterprises sector of the firm. PwC decided in September 2006 to close this division and offered Neels early retirement and to allow him to re-start CRVW with the staff of his responsible division and the clients in that division. CRVW then re-started in December 2006 with 10 people (almost where he left off 7 years ago!). From a very modest start in Kutz Building, Independence Avenue Windhoek the firm grew with a very rapid pace and currently employs 50 people in 2 offices, Windhoek and Luderitz. The firm currently has 4 partners with Stephan van Rooyen joining as partner with effect from 1 July 2014.Read More
