Who we are
Averdes was founded in 2012.
Since then, we helped more than 500 clients to identify overpayments and optimize their accounts payable processes. We are still a small but fine consulting company with an innovative approach and one big goal: exclusively satisfied customers.

Social responsibility
We want to do good. Not only in our projects and for our clients, but also beyond. That is why we are involved through memberships and donations with associations and initiatives that make an important contribution, e.g.
■ for the conservation of our fauna and flora,
■ the strengthening of peaceful coexistence in our society and
■ education, promotion and medical care for children and young people.
Climate protection
We started reducing our CO2 emissions in the summer of 2019. So far, we have saved about 82% of our original CO2 footprint (as of 31/12/2022) through various measures. Our goal is a further annual reduction of the remaining emissions
We compensate for the remaining emissions by supporting various climate protection projects in Germany
