Our Firm
O’Connor Richmond Limited is a reputable Chartered Accountancy firm based in Gore, Southland. We pride ourselves on our practical know how and we are committed to offering sound professional advice to our diverse range of clients.
Our Foundations
O’Connor Richmond Limited (OCR) is a long‑standing Chartered Accountancy firm proudly based in Gore, Southland. The practice in its current form was established in 1990 through the merger of two well‑known local firms — Kearney O’Connor & Co and Richmond Bone & Co. Together, these predecessor partnerships have roots in the community dating back to the 1960s.
A number of our clients — though now fewer in number — have been with us since those early days. Their loyalty reflects our commitment to strong relationships, trusted advice, and genuine community connection.
With decades of experience supporting both business and agricultural clients across the South, we’ve built a reputation for practical know‑how and down‑to‑earth professionalism. We’re proud of our history, and we remain committed to providing sound, reliable advice to the diverse range of clients who choose to work with us.
