ABOUT US
About Lande
Lande is a multidisciplinary professional services firm providing assurance, advisory, tax, forensic, information systems audit, and business support services across Southern Africa. Established in South Africa, the firm has evolved into a regional practice with operations extending into Zimbabwe and collaborative networks throughout the SADC region.
Our mandate is to bring clarity, trust, and technical excellence to the organisations we serve. We work with both public- and private-sector clients to improve governance, enhance accountability, and unlock value through insight-driven solutions.
Regional Structure and Presence
Lande operates as an integrated regional firm under a unified brand, supported by locally registered entities in each jurisdiction:
Lande South Africa serves as the Group’s operational centre and technical anchor, with its Bryanston, Johannesburg office coordinating group-wide projects, technical reviews, and client relationship management.
The firm maintains a presence in Polokwane, Limpopo, which supports regional assignments and client service delivery across northern provinces.
Lande Zimbabwe, a locally incorporated firm aligned with the Public Accountants and Auditors Board (PAAB) and the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Zimbabwe (ICAZ), extends the Group’s footprint north of the Limpopo, offering the same depth of technical capability adapted to Zimbabwe’s professional and statutory framework.
Through this dual-jurisdiction model, Lande delivers seamless cross-border professional services that comply fully with local laws, professional body requirements, and ethical standards in each country of operation.
Our Purpose
At Lande, we believe that professional services should strengthen public trust, improve decision-making, and drive measurable impact. Our purpose is to deliver clarity and confidence—whether through the assurance that a financial statement can be trusted, the precision of a forensic investigation, or the strategic insight of a tax or advisory engagement.
Our engagements are designed to enhance integrity in reporting, efficiency in operations, and resilience in governance systems—helping clients navigate complexity with certainty.
Our Philosophy and Approach
Our approach rests on three enduring principles:
Technical Depth and Quality We apply international standards with local precision. Our teams include Chartered Accountants, Registered Auditors, Certified Fraud Examiners, Information Systems Auditors (CISA), Certified Ethical Hackers, and other accredited professionals whose expertise spans accounting, tax, technology, and governance.
Integrated Service Delivery Our multidisciplinary structure allows us to combine audit assurance, risk management, tax compliance, forensic investigation, and IT audit within a single coordinated framework. This integration ensures that clients receive coherent, end-to-end solutions rather than fragmented advisory inputs.
Client Partnership and Responsiveness We position ourselves as long-term partners in our clients’ success. Each engagement is grounded in a deep understanding of the client’s business, sector, and operating environment—enabling us to provide advice that is practical, compliant, and sustainable.
