Rea & Associates recently announced it merged in Walthall CPAs, to create a CPA and business consulting firm with more than 300 employees and 13 offices across Ohio. Rea indicated the merger has led to the creation of a regional structure within the organization. According to Rea, there will be four regions: Northeast Ohio, East Central Ohio, West Central Ohio, and Southeast Ohio. The company stated that each of these regions will be led by a regional president. Rea indicated that its regional structure allows it to better meet the needs of clients across central and eastern Ohio, while still maintaining the company’s “One Firm” culture.

Rea shared that it has acquired two Walthall offices within the Cleveland/Mentor area. These two new offices, according to Rea, will allow it to better serve the accounting and financial needs of Mentor-area residents. The company also announced that Mentor will be included in the Northeast Ohio Region, which also includes offices located in Cleveland, Amherst, and Medina.
