A significant footprint in Africa – with 61 offices across 42 countries – connects our clients to the insight and support needed to navigate business throughout the continent.
Eight independent firms. One shared ambition.
PKF in South Africa brings together 8 independent firms, each with deep roots in the markets and communities they serve. That local insight is strengthened by the knowledge, experience and relationships shared across the network.
Together, we broaden what each firm can offer – drawing on specialist capabilities, different perspectives and our collective strength.
A Global Network.
A Local Partner.
With 513 offices in 150 countries, PKF is truly global. Across South Africa, our firms combine on-the-ground experience with international reach – connecting clients to expertise and opportunities across markets.
Wherever opportunity takes you, you’ll have the strength of the PKF network behind you.
- • Local knowledge with global perspective.
- • Connected expertise across Africa and beyond.
- • Relationships that extend across markets and borders.
What sets us apart?
Independent thinking. Collective strength.
Our relationships are built around understanding the business behind the brief – what you’re trying to achieve, what’s driving your ambition and what stands in the way. We ask the questions that need to be asked and bring a considered point of view to the decisions in front of you.
Every partnership is backed by a team that supports your vision and stays closely engaged. When the brief calls for something more, we draw on capabilities from across our firms and the wider PKF network to bring additional expertise and perspective to the table.
The result is advice shaped around your business, grounded in what matters now and informed by where you want to go next.

Beyond the work.
What we stand for is reflected not only in the work we do, but in how we operate, contribute and show up in the communities around us.
ESG & Sustainability
Creating long-term value through responsible business.
Sustainability is now a business priority, not just a future concern. As organisations face evolving regulations and climate risks, the challenge is turning these obligations into opportunities for resilience and long-term value.
PKF provides a practical approach to ESG, helping our clients strengthen governance, enhance reporting and embed sustainability into decision-making. That same commitment extends across our network, with our firms continuing to strengthen responsible practices within their own organisations.
Building a sustainable future starts with better decisions today.
PKF For Good (CSR)
Purpose, put into practice.
PKF For Good brings our firms together around a shared commitment to the communities where we live and work.
From education and community upliftment to environmental and animal welfare initiatives, our people support causes that matter to them through their time, skills and involvement.
It’s how a shared purpose becomes collective action.
Awards
Recognition that reflects the work behind it.
We’re proud of the recognition our firms have received across the network – but
what matters most is what sits behind it: consistent quality, strong relationships
and a commitment to doing great work for our clients.
-
Xero Awards South Africa 2025

-
PKF Global ICON Awards

Alumni
Relationships built to outlast the job.
