Bookkeeping for Belmont Small Businesses
Bookkeeping for the family-owned businesses of Belmont and Arthur Avenue. Monthly books, payroll, and catch-up work from a Bronx-based firm.
Arthur Avenue and Beyond
Belmont is the Bronx’s Little Italy, and it still operates like one. Arthur Avenue is lined with butcher shops, bakeries, pasta makers, delis, and restaurants that have been in the same families for decades. Walk a few blocks in any direction and you’ll find barbershops, salons, and small service businesses serving the neighborhood. These are real, working businesses run by people who care deeply about what they do.
Many of these businesses have gotten by without formal bookkeeping for years. The owner tracks things in their head or on paper, and it works until it doesn’t. That’s where we come in. M&H Accounting Services provides small business bookkeeping in the Bronx, and Belmont is part of our own backyard. We handle the financial record-keeping so you can keep doing what your business is known for.

We manage what goes out and what comes in. Vendor bills tracked and paid on schedule. Customer invoices sent and followed up on. Your cash flow stays visible instead of being a guessing game at the end of each month.
Belmont Businesses We Work With
The Arthur Avenue corridor gets the attention, but Belmont is more than just food. The neighborhood is full of small, owner-operated businesses that serve both the local community and customers who travel from across the city. What they share is a hands-on approach where the owner is involved in every part of the operation, often leaving the financial side for nights and weekends.
We work with businesses doing anywhere from a few hundred thousand to a couple million in annual revenue. Big enough to need real bookkeeping, but not big enough to justify hiring someone full-time. That’s the gap we fill, and we do it at flat monthly rates so the cost is predictable.
Restaurants and Cafes
Restaurants and Cafes
Belmont’s dining scene is the heart of the neighborhood. From old-school Italian restaurants to newer spots along Arthur Avenue and the surrounding blocks, margins are tight and tracking matters. We handle restaurant bookkeeping including daily sales reconciliation, tip reporting, and food cost tracking so you know what you’re actually keeping.
Specialty Food Retail
Specialty Food Retail
Butchers, bakeries, pasta shops, delis, cheese shops. These businesses move product every day with a mix of cash, card, and sometimes wholesale accounts. We track cost of goods, manage vendor payments, and keep the books clean so you can see real margins on what you’re selling.
Salons and Barbershops
Salons and Barbershops
Belmont has barbershops and salons throughout the neighborhood. Cash transactions, booth rentals, commission structures, and product inventory all create bookkeeping complexity that’s easy to let slide. We keep it organized month to month.
Neighborhood Services
Neighborhood Services
Dry cleaners, auto repair, small contractors, professional offices. The businesses that round out a neighborhood and serve the people who live and work here. We handle the books so you can focus on running things instead of staring at spreadsheets after hours.
