Full-service accounting firm for family businesses and agriculture
Frost is a 51–200-person accounting partnership founded in 1974, headquartered in Little Rock, AR. The tech stack is dominated by CCH products (Axcess, ProSystems fx) plus NetSuite, QuickBooks, and Business Central—standard mid-market accounting infrastructure with no visible adopts or replacements, suggesting stable, mature operations. Hiring remains finance-heavy (28 roles) with a decelerating velocity (10 posts in last 30 days), paired with active projects in audit, tax research, and cost segregation studies; pain points center on busy-season workload compression and compliance complexity in agriculture/food-and-animal-welfare verticals.
Frost provides tax, assurance, and advisory services to family businesses, food and agriculture operations, construction and real estate firms, manufacturers, and public companies. The firm maintains specialized expertise in employee benefit plans (ERISA), business valuation, litigation support, and SAS 70/SSAE 16 audits. Operating since 1974 as an independent partnership, Frost serves mid-market clients primarily across the United States, with a focus on reducing client engagement time and managing the compliance burden of evolving regulatory landscapes—particularly around animal welfare standards and complex tax planning.
Frost uses CCH Axcess, CCH ProSystems fx Engagement, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Business Central, and Sage, supplemented by Microsoft Office and Adobe Acrobat for document management.
