About me

Bruno Trigo

I'm the owner and got started in finance while managing Trigo Foods Ltd., a produce wholesale/distribution company that I founded in 2012.
Here I extended my business management skills. As an operator of a startup with limited funds, I had to create several systems and solutions that were both efficient and cost-effective.
I found a renewed interest in problem-solving and developed a passion for bookkeeping and cloud services. This firsthand experience and years of searching for creative and efficient solutions culminated with founding Coastal Ledgers Bookkeeping & Consulting.
