BUSINESS OF THE YEAR 2021 HOLT CPA
Just north of Hobble Creek on the northeast corner of Springville’s Main and Center streets, an office building stands on property that has been part of Kirk Holt’s family for generations. “My wife’s great-great-grandfather, when he came to Springville, he
settled on this very piece of property,” Holt said while sitting in the offices of HOLT CPA at 14 N. Main, Springville. Ira Sanford built a two-story adobe house on the property, unaware that the land would be part of his family’s activities for decades to come.
This is Kirk. Kirk is a super awesome CPA. He loves our community, and the community sure seems to love him back (btw, congrats to HOLT CPA on being the 2020 Business of the Year).
Kirk’s team magically handles the number stuff that keeps our businesses going.
If you own a business or file taxes . . . call Kirk. The Rest Of The Story Kirk Holt graduated from Brigham Young University in 1988 with a master’s degree in accounting, and earned his CPA license in the fall of 1990. Before venturing out on his own, Kirk worked 9 years for an Ogden Utah CPA firm. He then founded Holt CPA right here in Springville, in the fall of 1998, by purchasing the accounting and tax practice of Glade Binks. That’s nearly 23 years of local, expert service to folks just like you. Since that time, the firm has grown to include seven excellent employees that are dedicated to high standards of professionalism, integrity, dependability, and technology. Holt’s services range from individual and business income tax preparation to business financial statement preparation. Holt CPA also provides payroll processing, bookkeeping, QuickBooks support, accounting system setup, individual and business tax planning, and business consulting services. Their aim is to thoroughly understand and meet each client’s needs with personalized service.

His father purchased it in November of 1981 and opened Art City Auto Supply. That business was sold in 2000 and the current building was built in 2003 to serve as the home of HOLT CPA. Now, in 2021, the Springville-Mapleton Chamber of Commerce has honored HOLT CPA with its Business of the Year Award. “We’ve steadily grown over the years. We have a busy atmosphere here. I think people like to come here because we hope to make them feel welcome and appreciated,” Holt said. “It’s important that our clients know that we know who they are. Each situation is unique and we work hard to get to know that situation.” HOLT CPA offers financial statement preparation, full accounting services and tax preparation for individuals and businesses.
