PwC provides industry-focused assurance, tax and advisory services to enhance value for their clients. We share their thinking, experience and solutions to develop fresh perspectives and practical advice. PwC was established as a result of the merger of two firms - Price Waterhouse and Coopers & Lybrand in 1998. However, history of the company is much longer and traces back to the mid-nineteenth century when Samuel Lowell Price opened his office in London. Nowadays PwC has offices in 158 countries with 180 000 people employed. The history of PwC in Poland dates back to 1990. Polish PwC offices ensure a full scope of products and services in three service lines: Assurance, Advisory and Tax & Legal. We currently operate in 7 cities in Poland: Gdansk, Krakow, Poznan, Katowice, Wroclaw, Lodz and Warsaw. In 2010, the firm also established a Shared Service Center in Katowice.
