Accounting Services for Gandy-Sun Bay South
The Gandy corridor is one of those stretches of Tampa where small businesses are packed in tight. Auto shops, restaurants, service companies, marine businesses, and everything in between. It’s a working commercial area where the owners are running the business themselves and accounting tends to fall to the bottom of the list until something forces the issue.
We provide bookkeeping, tax preparation, and payroll services for small businesses in the Gandy-Sun Bay South area. Our office is in Riverview, about twenty minutes away, and we handle most of the work remotely. That keeps things efficient for both sides and means your books get done whether or not we’re sitting across from each other.

Who We Work With Along the Gandy Corridor
The Gandy-Sun Bay South area has a different feel from the rest of South Tampa. It’s more commercial, more hands-on. The businesses here aren’t tech startups or downtown law firms. They’re service companies, trades, restaurants, and owner-operated shops where the person signing the checks is also the one doing the work. That’s exactly who we built this firm to serve.
Miguel Zavaleta, our founder and CPA, spent years in corporate finance and nonprofit management before starting EMG. He saw how small businesses struggle with the same financial challenges that larger organizations have dedicated teams to handle. Business tax preparation, financial reporting, cash flow planning. We bring that same level of attention to businesses doing $100K to a few million in revenue.
Contractors and Trades

Common Questions
Your office is in Riverview. Do you work with businesses near Gandy?
Yes. Riverview is about twenty minutes from the Gandy corridor. Most of the work happens digitally anyway, so location doesn't create any barriers. We're close enough to meet when it's needed.
What does monthly bookkeeping cost?
Starting at $200 per month. The actual price depends on your transaction volume and complexity. We give you an exact quote after reviewing your situation.
Do you handle Florida sales tax?
Yes. We track what you owe, file with the Department of Revenue on time, and make sure your rates are correct. It's straightforward but easy to fall behind on if nobody is watching it.
What if my books haven't been touched in months?
That's a normal starting point for us. We do catch-up work to get everything current and then transition to monthly service going forward.
Can I meet with you in person?
Absolutely. Our office is on Crescent Park Drive in Riverview. We also handle everything remotely if that's easier for your schedule.
