Advisory & Accounting Services
Driving Businesses Forward for 90+ Years
With roots dating back to 1932, Pinion has made it our mission to immerse ourselves in the lives we touch and the world we live in.
We have proudly supported food, ag, and community businesses for over 90 years.
Our History
Rooted in Food and Ag
As the nation’s leading advisory and accounting firm dedicated to the food and agriculture industry — we know your business because many of us grew up on farms and are actively involved in our own farms and ranches.
Pinion works with people just like you — producers, input suppliers, processors, packagers, distributors, biofuel manufacturers, equipment dealerships, landowners, lenders, and many agencies and policy organizations — to positively impact the future of farming and food production around the world.
Embedded throughout the food supply chain — from policy to plate.
Our Focus
Family. Business. Legacy.
Our communities and industries are at the heart of everything we do.
Founded as a traditional accounting services firm, Pinion has expanded to become a nationally-recognized “Top 70” accounting firm in the U.S. and a leading food and agriculture advisory firm worldwide.
Just as a pinion gear system drives motion, we continue to deliver powerful strategies and thought leadership that drive your business and legacy forward. Applying our specialized advisory and meaningful insights to what matters most.
“For the past 90 years, Pinion has been steadfast in its core mission: To make a difference in the world we live in.”
-Jeff Wald, Pinion CEO
