About the Founder
Andrew Matthews, founder and President of Douglas McNeill Consulting, incorporated the company in Canada in 2006. The company is named after Andrew’s father, Douglas, and Andrew’s late grandfather, whose middle name was McNeill. The McNeill middle name has been passed on through the family since 1775.
Mr. Matthews’ career spans the globe; he has been building businesses in North America, the Middle East, Central Asia and Africa since 2001. He has worked and lived in countries like Afghanistan, Iraq, Djibouti, Ethiopia and Sudan. Matthews has always enjoyed building and strengthening companies from the ground up.
A thirst for personal adventure frequently leads him to travel further abroad, while he attempts to tackle the Seven Summit Challenge by climbing the tallest mountains on each continent.
Through this experience, he has developed the knowledge, experience and relationships necessary to effectively manage your business affairs.
