Enterprise, Alabama-based accounting firm Carr, Riggs & Ingram (CRI) has expanded its presence in northern Alabama by merging with Florence-based Abroms & Associates. CRI aims to strengthen its footprint in the region, enhancing its local services with national level capabilities, and Abroms & Associates plans to extend its resource base and expand client services under this merger.
Enterprise, Ala.-based Carr, Riggs & Ingram (CRI) has announced that Florence, Ala.-based Abroms & Associates has joined the firm, expanding CRI’s footprint in northern Alabama and reinforcing its commitment to the Southeast market.
“Abroms & Associates has long been recognized for its dedication to clients and its deep roots in the Shoals community,” said Bill Carr, CRI chairman. “Their focus on excellence and genuine client care aligns perfectly with CRI’s culture and values. This merger not only strengthens our footprint in northern Alabama but also reflects our ongoing commitment to investing in talented teams and expanding into growing markets.”
“Joining CRI allows us to honor our legacy while expanding the depth of resources and expertise available to our clients,” added Marty Abroms, managing shareholder of Abroms & Associates. “Together, we will continue building on the strong client relationships that define our community.”
Founded in 1981, Abroms & Associates has served clients across industries such as real estate, manufacturing and distribution, and nonprofits. The team will continue operating from its Florence office under the CRI name.
With more than 2,500 professionals across 40 markets nationwide, CRI continues executing its growth strategy of pairing local service with national-scale capabilities, following its strategic partnership with Centerbridge Partners and Bessemer Venture Partners in late 2024.
